Statistical Process Control (SPC) is one of the core IATF 16949 tools.

To confirm if the process is in statistical control, we use Control Charts.

To check if the process is capable of producing output that meets specifications, we perform Process Capability Studies.

This course covers both aspects of the Statistical Process Control (SPC): Control charts and Process Capability Studies.

This is the basics-to-advanced course on Statistical Process Control (SPC).

In fact, this is a 4-in-1 course.

Course 1: Statistics Foundation: To understand Control Charts and Process Capability, you need to have a basic understanding of statistical concepts including the probability distributions. Section B of this covers all that you need to understand SPC better.

Course 2: Control Charts/Process Capability Using Minitab: Minitab is the most advanced tool used by professionals to plot Control Charts and perform the Process Capability Analysis.

Course 3: Control Charts/Process Capability Using Excel: In addition to Minitab, you will understand how to perform all these calculations using Microsoft Excel. Minitab is costly and not everyone might have access to Minitab. Microsoft Excel is widely accessible. In addition, when you perform calculations using Excel, you get a much better understanding of what is happening under the hood.

Course 4: Process Capability Analysis: Control Charts just tell if the process is in control or not. To check if the process is capable or not, you need to perform the Process Capability Analysis. This course covers all the calculations using Excel and Minitab.
