STATISTICAL QUALITY ANALYSIS FOR SERVICE QUALITY
In this course, you will learn the fundamentals of statistical process control and how these important quality tools can provide evidence to improve and control your processes. Develop the necessary skills to successfully evaluate and certify your measurement systems. Plus, practice skills to know when and where to use the various types of control charts available in Minitab. You will understand how to utilize important capability analysis tools so you can evaluate your processes relative to internal and customer specifications.
This course emphasizes the teaching of quality tools as they pertain to service industries.
Topics Include:
- Attribute Agreement for Binary, Nominal, and Ordinal Data
- Kappa and Kendall’s Coefficients
- Gage R&R
- Variables and Attribute Control Charts
- Capability Analysis for Normal, Nonnormal, and Attribute Data
Prerequisite: Minitab Essentials for Service Quality
STATISTICAL MODELING FOR SERVICE QUALITY
Expand your set of available statistical tools by analyzing data from real-world service industry problems. You will strengthen analysis skills with tools that can be used to explore and describe relationships between variables. Plus, learn to discover and describe features in data related to the effect and impact of time, and how to forecast future process behavior.
Be prepared to utilize graphical and quantitative approaches to describe similarities and differences between the effects of various factors on important quality characteristics. You will learn how to find and quantify the effect that factors have on the probability of a critical event occurring.
Topics Include:
- Multi-Variable ANOVA
- Binary Logistic Regression
- Factorial Designs
- Time Series Tools, including Forecasting
- Seasonality and Decomposition
- Multiple Linear Regression including Best Subsets and Stepwise Regression
Prerequisite: Minitab Essentials for Service Quality
AUTOMATING ANALYSES IN MINITAB
In this course, you will learn how to automate your Minitab analysis and save time with macros! We’ll cover how to use Minitab’s command syntax to write macros that instantaneously import data from a database, manipulate poorly structured Excel files, and perform statistical analysis with minimal user input. By the end of this hands-on course, you will be able to write and execute your own custom macros!
Topics Include:
- Command Line
- Automating Analyses through Execs
- Creating Macros
- Minitab Customization
- Control Statements
Prerequisite: Minitab Essentials
WORKSHOP
Minitab training provides the foundation for improving your efficiency to use statistics to analyze data. The examples present real-world scenarios to learn the tools, while the exercises allow time to practice. Bring your educational journey full circle by reinforcing the training using data from your company. This affords the attendees the opportunity to relate directly to their own use cases.
The workshop places strong emphasis on making sound decisions based upon the practical application of statistical tools to your company projects with your data.
Topics will be determined by the specific customer data brought to the workshop.
