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
People from quality, manufacturing, engineering, purchasing or marketing will benefit from this Failure Mode and Effects Analysis training, in understanding the cases for when to apply the FMEA process (new design or process, modifications to existing design or process, or use of existing design or process in a new application).
Course Objectives
This program provides a fundamental and practical review of Failure Mode and Effects Analysis. FMEA is an excellent quality tool to use with any quality system. While the general benefits of Process FMEA are similar to those of Design FMEA, the specific benefit of this FMEA training is that you will learn to use these powerful tools effectively to improve processes in your organization.

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) for Beginners-Online
Course Summary
This introductory course presents a step-by-step method for conducting Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA). It defines the role, methodologies, and implementation of FMEAs as an essential component of a preventive action program. Participants will determine FMEA objectives, potential failure cause and effect, assessment of risks, and preventive action plans. This interactive course includes handouts, practice exercises, job aids, design-process-service examples, quizzes, free FMEA excel template (editable) and a free desk reference. The class has been updated to be consistent with the FMEA 4th edition reference manual for use by automotive suppliers. The course requires the completion of a homework assignment that will be graded by an instructor. Feedback is provided on all assignments. Learning Outcomes Upon the completion of this course, you will be able to: define the properties of FMEA brainstorm potential failures assess risk of failure determine areas that need action apply FMEA methods know the roles for team participation complete FMEAs for your operations.
