Looking back--a history of progress: Society of Quality Assurance.
The Society of Quality Assurance (SQA) Historical Committee has tracked the impressive evolution of our society from the initial sharing of ideas at the 1980 Quality Assurance Roundtable meeting to the formation of the national SQA in 1984, to a 12-fold increase in membership numbers through 1993. This article describes annual meeting locations and attendance, membership numbers, and organizational information, as well as significant milestones for both the Quality Assurance Roundtable group and the SQA.
