Break the product into two separate products.

q[n_] := Sum[
    1/(Product[Subscript[k, p] - Subscript[k, j], {p, 1, j - 1}] *
          Product[Subscript[k, p] - Subscript[k, j], {p, j + 1, n}]), {j, 1, 
      n}] 

q[3]

1/((Subscript[k, 2] - Subscript[k, 1])*(Subscript[k, 3] - 
     Subscript[k, 1])) + 
  1/((Subscript[k, 1] - Subscript[k, 2])*
    (Subscript[k, 3] - Subscript[k, 2])) + 
  1/((Subscript[k, 1] - Subscript[k, 3])*
    (Subscript[k, 2] - Subscript[k, 3]))
