What is the Linkage Between NQI PEP® Assessment Scores, and the Canada Awards for Excellence (CAE)?
Organizations can take two routes to achieve a CAE Award. For organizations that are just starting their quality and/or healthy workplace journey, or for those organizations that want to use a step-by-step approach to continuous improvement and be recognized along the way, NQI’s Progressive Excellence Program (NQI PEP®) is the answer. It’s not an “either/or”; it can be a combination. That’s because those organizations in NQI PEP® can now be linked to the Award as they make progress. The following chart demonstrates the linkages.
