Design of Experiments (DOE)
Course Delivery: In-Person Training, Training for Teams
This course has multiple delivery options to fit our customers’ individual needs. Click the tabs below for more information on each option.
In-Person Training consists of public classes conducted by one of our subject matter experts at one of our designated locations in one or more consecutive days.
Target Audience
Anyone responsible for improving processes and products, including managers, engineers, supervisors, quality assurance personnel, technicians, and machine operators.
Prerequisites
All attendees are assumed to have a working knowledge of basic SPC. It is helpful if the participants have some basic math skill like calculating Mean and Standard Deviation. They should have a very basic knowledge of Excel. They should be interested in learning a powerful technique (Design of Experiments) that will help them find the root cause of a process or product problem. We will also use Minitab in the training, but it is not a requirement to know Minitab. We will learn how to use Minitab to set-up, run, and analyze a Design of Experiment in the training.
