Purpose
This advanced course includes instruction from a comprehensive, applied training manual. The examples used throughout the seminar are actual examples using data gathered by personnel involved in developing and implementing process control systems and conducting capability analyses. Unique aspects of this course include short-term and process capability analysis for non-normal distributions, employing the X and Moving R chart for the control of non-normal processes, and computer applications for specialized functions.
