How to Think About Data

In school we learn about mathematics, but not how to think about data. We are taught formulas, theories, postulates and axioms, but not how to think about data. We learn definitions, but not how to think about data and how to understand data.

You will find the remedy to the problem in this program. Arriving at empirical evidence from the clear understanding of data is the most direct line to rapid problem solving. Opinions of the experts can quickly pale when confronted with numerical evidence. Participants will learn to connect the data to the actions.

Participants learn how to collect, analyze and interpret data. The facilitator will cover, in-depth, essentials of statistical decision making. The facilitator will use Minitab software for all analytical actions during the program. Once the data has identified useful actions, the participants will learn how to use Minitab Quality Companion (additional software) to organize every aspect of the forthcoming improvement projects.
