SPC Strategies was designed by a team of Industrial Statisticians and ASQ Certified Quality Engineers with decades of manufacturing process control experience. This course addresses how manufacturers are using SPC software to reduce scrap and improve their bottom line. Taught by an InfinityQS application engineer, SPC Strategies features hands-on activities and demonstrations as well as case studies and success stories. Participants gain a real-life understanding of how to best implement statistical process control—even in the most complex manufacturing environments.
Audience: The class is intended for operators, engineers, supervisors, and anyone else who desires an understanding of Statistical Process Control. This class is designed to present why Statistical Process Control works without the formulae and statistics that make it work. Although the basic statistics and formulas used in SPC will be addressed, SPC Strategies is not a statistics course for the practitioner.
Prerequisites: This course does not require a prior knowledge of InfinityQS SPC for participation.
