Fast Track
If you're flexible with travel, jump ahead by selecting one of the recommended facilities to the right.
Otherwise, the form below helps drill down from state to city to a specific training facility for your Parameter Design Training class.
Recommended States
Pre-enrollment is accepted until the minimum student requirement is met.
Once enough students have signed up, then we will reach out to process your payment.
If minimum enrollment is not attained, we may ask that you consider an alternate date or location.
With that in mind, would any of the 4 states be possible for you?
Facilities in these states either have a low minimum student requirement, or already have students signing up:
All States
However, if travel is a limitation for you and none of the states above will work, don't worry. We have several options.
And if none of those below suit your needs, feel free to contact us and make a request.
We will do everything possible to accomodate.
A common request we receive is to do on-site training for companies seeking to get several employees trained at the same time.
About Parameter Design Training
Who is Parameter Design Training for?
Parameter Design is most often used by Product Design Engineers and their management. In our course, students learn:
Parameter Design Training Course Overview:
How many billions of dollars do you suppose have been lost due to parameters (dimensions) being set wrong or failing to communicate safety-related and function-critical feature classification to Procurement and Manufacturing teams?
The primary focus of our 1-day Introduction to Parameter Design is conveying how design products that customers want to buy. Not doing this can be catastrophic. One of the worst examples we've seen is a small company who wasted $12M designing a pressure-based UPS system for which they generated zero sales. Through presentation, examples, and hands-on exercises, students will learn through doing the following in a highly interactive and fun setting:
| | Running a designed experiment with low cost components and process settings. |
| | Selecting optimum values for parameters that will reduce the variability of the response to noise. |
| | Selecting lowest cost settings for factors that have minimal effect on response. |
Prerequisites. Basic:
| | Knowledge of Product Design / Engineering |
| | Math: Algebra, Summations |
| | Excel |
Details.
| | All students receive a binder of slide print-outs. |
| | Students will also be asked to evaluate the class. |
| | Comprehension will be measured with a quiz. Passing grade is 80%. Students scoring less will receive a call from their instructor to review weak points. |
| | Once understanding is confirmed, certificate proofs will be emailed for error-checking. |
| | Certificates will then be printed and delivered by normal mail. Certificates are individually serialized with no expiration date although annual refresher training is recommended. |
Schedule. The day is usually 8am-3pm including time for breaks and followed by a quiz. Lunch is between 30-60 minutes depending on client preference.
