Statistics can be FUN
and EASY!
"You should not
teach statistics but rather teach how to use statistics to solve problems.
Employees don't need statistics - they need to solve problems."
Jeffrey H. Hooper, Quality
Progress, February, 1989
Founded on these philosophies
Mesa Consulting Group, Inc. has
developed a Statistical Program Series which is based on a common Improvement
Project Flow. Our experience has shown us that the difficult part of using
statistical tools is knowing when and where to use a particular tool, not how to
do the calculations. By teaching the tools around a Project Flow we give
participants a method for determining the correct application of the various
tools.
We also have found that
participants can learn more about actually conducting a project if they are
required to collect real data. We accomplish this by using a
quincunx, bead bowl or a catapult to generate data. Not only does
this require the students to determine how to collect the data and manage the
project, but it is FUN!
Curriculum
Statistical
Process Control
This seminar enables
participants to solve problems using basic statistical tools and graphical
analysis. Topics include problem solving, the seven basic tools, control
charts, and capability analysis. The learning process is hands-on with a catapult,
bead bowl and process
simulator (quincunx)
used to generate data. An excellent program for supervisors, engineers,
managers and technical personnel from manufacturing functions. (3 days)
Statistical
Process Control for the Process Industries
This workshop emphasizes control chart methods more applicable to
process industries both batch and continuous. These methods include
Exponentially Weighted Moving Average, EWMA, control charts, Cumulative Sum,
Cusum, control chart and Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average, ARIMA,
models.
Working
with Data
To improve data based
decision making this workshop is an in-depth presentation of hypothesis testing,
confidence internal estimation, sample size determination and analysis of
variance and regression analysis. MINITAB®
statistical software is used throughout the workshop to maximize learning time.
Participants receive a 30-day trial copy of the software upon
completion of the program. Mesa
Consulting Group is an authorized dealer of Minitab. Contact us at sales@mesacg.com
for a price quote. An excellent
workshop for engineers, managers and technical personnel from manufacturing,
product development and research functions. (4 days)
Design
of Experiments
Designed experiments are
powerful tools for improving products and processes. Course covers
determining the cause and effect relationship between controllable variables and
output characteristics, including quality, cost and performance. Learn to
plan, execute and analyze designed experiments for complex situations. Design-Expert®
software is used to maximize the learning experience. Participants
receive a 180 day free trial of the software package. An
excellent workshop for engineers, managers and technical personnel who seek
answers to complex questions. (4 days)
All
workshops can be held on-site!
