Introduction
This training program provides participants with the necessary tools and knowledge to effectively implement Statistical Process Control (SPC) techniques in their organizations. SPC is a powerful method for monitoring, controlling, and improving processes to ensure consistency and quality in products and services.
Objectives
- Understand the fundamental concepts of SPC and its importance in process improvement
- Learn basic statistical techniques essential for SPC implementation
- Gain proficiency in constructing and interpreting control charts for both variables and attributes
- Develop skills to identify and respond to out-of-control situations
- Perform capability studies to assess process performance
- Apply learned concepts through practical case studies and workshop exercises
Duration
2 days (14 hours)
Who Should Attend
- Quality Assurance Managers
- Production Managers
- Process Engineers
- Quality Control Personnel
- Anyone involved in process improvement initiatives
