Build capability in root cause analysis across the team handling control chart training.
Building Training Programmes for Operators on Reading Control Charts
A concise, decision-focused programme covering control chart training end to end.
Course Overview
Most defects in control chart training are designed in long before they are detected. The cost of poor quality in this strand of quality and productivity management is rarely visible in any single budget line. Where the quality and productivity management discipline is measured, it improves; where it is only discussed, it drifts. A common pattern is strong design of control chart training paired with weak follow-through. Work is grounded in real cases drawn from this area of quality and productivity management, which each participant adapts to conditions in their own organisation. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in the quality and productivity management capability, not around theory headings. They leave able to brief senior management on control chart training in terms that support a decision. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for this area of quality and productivity management. The programme ends where implementation begins, with this part of quality and productivity management broken into steps someone can start on Monday.
