Course description
Use Minitab like a Pro – Through Statistics, DMAIC and Six Sigma
We will be progressing through introduction, intermediate and advanced Minitab modules throughout the course, linked very closely to learning the essentials of Six Sigma. Even if you have never used Minitab, you will have sufficient time to get comfortable with the software before diving deeper into the content.
Why Minitab?
Minitab is the cornerstone software associated with the practical understanding and application of Six Sigma.
What is DMAIC?
DMAIC, or “Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control” was made popular by the Six Sigma community, but stands on its own as a versatile and complete problem-solving roadmap. The course will follow the DMAIC approach to learning Six Sigma via Minitab.
How will we be learning Minitab?
Participants will be encouraged to either already own Minitab or download a 30 day free trial prior to the course. Alternatively, they can simply follow along if they do not own the software on their own computers. There is no prerequisite for having any working knowledge of Minitab prior to the course. An experienced "Analyze and Improve" trainer consultant will deliver the hands-on practical training.
Upcoming start dates
Who should attend?
The course is geared towards Engineers, Technical People and Analysts to enable them to understand and practice Minitab within the context of practical statistics, data analysis, DMAIC and Six Sigma. Fundamental tools to provide better support to business and management practices.
