This second course in SPC fills a void left by many, if not virtually all, textbooks on SPC. Found among the standard assumptions for SPC are 1) no between subgroup variation, 2) normally distributed data, 3) uncorrelated data in time (no serial or autocorrelation), and 4) homogeneous subgroups. However, these so-called standard assumptions in textbooks seem to be more the exception than the rule for real industrial processes. Thus, this course presents the practical side of SPC implementation, including SPC chart design for number of subgroups, frequency of subgroups, number of out-of-control (OOC) rules, how to handle multilevel batched processes, non-normal data, serially correlated data, fixed effects within subgroups, as well as special SPC techniques such as zero-inflated models for detection limit censored data and normalized charts.
This is the practical side of SPC that is usually not taught in textbooks but is essential to meet the practical demands of industry. By following techniques from this course, SPC charts will better be able to separate common from special cause and be truly effective for making the correct process decisions. These methods are a “must” for anyone who has struggled with making SPC effective in real industrial situations.
This course is designed for engineers, quality professionals, researchers, and managers who need to implement SPC in industry with real-world problematic data such as batched processes, non-normal data, and data correlated in time.
Through training, participants will:

Special Topics
Quality Support Group provides world class training in many useful topics. Their trainers, specifically Don and Dave, are very knowledgeable and genuinely there to help you learn and understand. I took their Green Belt training and certification, and highly recommend it. They have excellent training material, software tools, and activities. They are teaching from many years of experience and have so much technical and industry knowledge that makes it easier to relate to, understand, and apply the concepts. From this experience, I will definitely be looking to get more training from them to improve my skills. I highly recommend reaching out to QSG for your training needs and more. My company, Hexagon, has trusted them for years, having them continually train our employees in regulatory standards, problem solving 8D, continuous improvement, etc
