With this information, an operator can then decide whether or not to adjust the process.
Advanced Process Capability
See Course Objectives | See Course Outline Process Capability Study is a tool used to determine if a stable process is capable of meeting a customer’s specification. Process capability is based on statistical techniques that are used to predict the complete output of a process based on a relatively small sample. There are different ways to measure process capability including the capability ratio, capability index and the Cpk. The Cpk is the most commonly used measure of process capability because it not only determines if the process is capable is meeting the spec, but it also predicts how well the process is centered on the nominal of the specification.
Control Chart Basics
See Course Objectives | See Course Outline Control charts are tools that are used to monitor and control variation in processes. Control charts enable operators to determine if the variation in a process is due to expected common causes or if something unexpected has happened to change the expected output. With this information, an operator can then decide whether or not to adjust the process.
Control Plans
See Course Objectives | See Course Outline Use the NEW 2024 Control Plans Guidelines (following the AIAG Reference Manual) to ensure products and the processes that create them, meet customer requirements.

See Course Objectives | See Course Outline This course will help employees who support manufacturing operations understand how Lean Manufacturing will impact their functions and responsibilities. Each key function purchasing, scheduling, accounting, and shipping/warehousing is presented in terms of how its role needs to change to support lean manufacturing as well as how waste needs to be driven out of the supporting process itself.
Overview of Lean
See Course Objectives | See Course Outline This course provides an overview of the principles and practices of Lean. It is a great starting point for organizations to introduce managers and employees to the concepts and benefits of Lean Manufacturing. Simply put, lean organizations are customer focused. They reduce waste in their value streams by improving workflows and then by subsequently improving the physical layout of their facilities.
Process Capability Basics
See Course Objectives | See Course Outline This course provides a basic understanding of what process capability is and how it is statistically measured. Process Capability Ratio (Cr) and Process Capability Index (Cp) are covered to help understand the basic concept of process capability and then Cpk is explained and presented as a better measure of true process capability.
Set-Up Reduction Basics
See Course Objectives | See Course Outline Set-Up Reduction Basics introduces learners to the importance of quick equipment changeover and teaches the basic tools to reduce set-up time. Perhaps one of the most important yet underappreciated aspects of lean is reducing the time to set-up or changeover processes from one product to another. Whenever process equipment is being “set-up” or “changed-over” to make the next part, it is not productive, and “waste” is incurred. Reducing set-up time converts time equipment is shutdown being reconfigured to make another product into productive time.
TPM Basics
See Course Objectives | See Course Outline TPM Basics teaches learners the importance of equipment up-time in a Lean Manufacturing environment and introduces Total Productive Maintenance tools and techniques along with a three-phase implementation process. Lean organizations strive to reduce waste in all phases of the operation. Some of the least understood and most overlooked sources of waste relate to the condition and maintenance of processing equipment. One premise of Lean Manufacturing is that equipment is ready to run whenever it is needed (to meet customer demands).
Understanding Variation
See Course Objectives | See Course Outline This course is a primer in the statistics used for SPC (Statistical Process Control); topics covered include building and using a histogram to understand variation, patterns of variation, measures of variation (mean, range, standard deviation), the normal curve and process stability. Both graphical and mathematical techniques of measuring variation are covered. This course is a targeted training course and provides focused training on concepts of variation that serve as the foundation of control charts.
Value Stream Mapping
See Course Objectives | See Course Outline In this targeted online training, learners will gain an understanding of the purpose of conducting a value stream analysis and what a value stream map is. Steps to streamline a value stream from current state to future state are presented. A value stream is another term for a process that has inputs, performs work on those inputs, and generates an output that has added value. The basic premise of a value stream is that value is added as goods or services stream through the process.
Visual Workplace Basics
See Course Objectives | See Course Outline Visual Workplace Basics introduces learners to the concept of visual controls, prompts and displays as tools that can make work easier and reduce errors. When an organization commits to create a Visual Workplace, they are committing to exploring ways that make it easier for people to get their work done effectively and efficiently. Most Visual Workplace techniques involve the use of relatively “low-tech” common-sense modifications to work practices.
