Description

This training provides the approach and tools to build your experiment plan approach. In an industrial context where development times are shortening and costs must be tight, experimental plans constitute a tool of choice to optimize developments.

Who is this training for ?

For whom ?

Quality manager, project manager, engineer, designer, R&D technician, methods or industrialization. Knowledge of advanced statistical methods is recommended.

Prerequisites

None.

Training objectives

Master the basic techniques for developing an experimental design.

Use experimental designs: treatments, analyses, interpretation.

Contribute to the practice of experimental designs.
