Why Attend
Learn essential quality engineering concepts and tools to enhance your effectiveness as a quality engineer. In this course, participants will learn about quality systems, auditing, product and process control, and design, quality methods and tools, applied statistics, SPC, and the Design of Experiments (DOE). Participants will enhance their engineering expertise and their effectiveness as quality engineers with this comprehensive introduction to key quality engineering concepts and tools critical to success in the field of quality engineering today.
Course Methodology
This course relies on ASQ lectures and exercises. In addition, various group discussions and presentations will be used and study groups will be formed to engage participants.
Course Objectives
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
- Define basic leadership and quality management principles
- Discuss the relationship between the quality engineer and the quality system
- Describe the product and process design
- Explain product and process control
- Apply problem-solving tools and basic statistical concepts, process control, and process capability plans, acceptance sampling, and attribute control
- Use various quantitative tools such as process capability and statistical process control, acceptance sampling plans and technical quality tools
- Justify the incorporation of quality technology in design, customer and supplier relationships, Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability (RAM), materials control, measurement, auditing, quality costs and document control within a quality system
