Abstract
The article recognizes the currently growing interest for quality in education, the importance of Deming's contribution to quality management and indicates that educational and industrial institutions may not be as different as people seem to think. The main body of the article deals with how Deming's theory in 14 points may be applied to education. The author presents and discusses ideas bearing upon how each point may be utilized in educational settings. The intention is to raise interest for putting the theory to practical use in schools and institutions of higher learning.
