Statistical Process Control (2-day)
Introductory Statistical Process Control (SPC)
This two-day class provides the attendee with the methodology, knowledge, and skills needed to have a basic understanding of SPC, including the interpretation of the process Control Charts and Process Capability indicators, Cp and Cpk. Topics include basic Quality Assurance terminology, SPC terminology, process variance, Control Chart interpretation and SPC for Continual Improvement.
Learn to interpret Control Charts
By the end of this two-day class the attendee will be capable of understanding the basic information provided by a process Control Chart. Numerous real examples of Control Charts will be presented. The attendee will be able to graph a control chart from either provided or developed data.
In addition, the attendee will have a familiarity of the various types of trends and patterns seen in Control Charts, with an understanding of when action should or should not be taken. Differentiation between Specification Limits and Control Limits will be covered in this class.
Better Understanding of Statistical Process Control
This training course is suitable for attendees with little or no SPC background, as well as those from organizations using SPC. While primarily a class focused on manufacturing process control, the attendee from the service industry will benefit with an understanding of Control Charts and Statistical Process Control.
Line operators and managers will especially benefit from this class due to the thorough understanding of variance and how to take action (or not to) based on the information provided in the Control Charts. Those desiring to increase their current understanding of SPC will also benefit due to the increased knowledge of process variance that is provided.
