The course offers a presentation of the Automotive SPICE® model from the perspective of a man­ager. In particular, the differences between ISO/IEC 15504 and its process reference model and the domain­specific amendments of Automotive SPICE® will be presented. Furthermore,  the  differences  between  Automotive  SPICE®  and  other  models  for  design  and  im­provement of processes, such as CMMI, ISO 9001 and ITIL will be introduced. The participants will be shown the possibilities for application of the model in their own company and in cooperation between customer and supplier. On the basis of the course contents, the potential for application in the participants’ direct environment can be assessed. 
The course consists of presentations, exercises and discussions, and offers ample opportunity for questions, discussions and exchange of experiences.
