This blended course will help you understand the role and application of Statistical Process Control (SPC) to improve business performance. It offers self-paced learning on the concepts of SPC and then puts you in a virtual workshop where you’ll get to work with real data and an industry expert. There will be a strong utilities industry operational focus in the workshop portion of this course. You’ll bring your own data to the workshop to learn, and more importantly, to take back to your organization and begin realizing some of the benefits of using SPC.
