About IFA

Who we are

The Improvement Foundation (Australia) Ltd is a not-for-profit organisation whose core business is to provide expertise in the development and delivery of quality improvement programs to bring about
systems change.

We are passionate about improving the lives of individuals and communities, and focus on undertaking work that we think will make a real difference.

What we do

We offer programs designed to help public and community organisations improve the services they provide. Some of these programs focus on specific issues, such as Indigenous health, while others focus on developing leaders, managers and front line staff to deliver change.

We use established quality improvement methods to give people the skills and knowledge they need to make on-going and sustainable progress.

No matter what your business is, our Programs can help you achieve measurable and sustainable results.

If you have a need, we have a solution

We can tailor quality improvement training to suit the needs of individuals and organsiations. From government departments, hopitals and pharmacies, to emergency services, local government and schools, we'll help you develop a culture of continuous quality improvement, no matter what line of business you're in.

About Quality Improvement

In service organisations, a definition of quality improvement could be: continually working together to improve the experience and outcomes for users and the working lives of the staff who deliver it.

Making improvements to products, systems or services requires change. Although change can seem threatening or overwhelming for busy people, it can be successfully managed if it is well planned.

Improvement Foundation (Australia) guides and supports organisations through the change process using simple and practical quality improvement tools and techniques.
