Minitab-14 Fundamentals

Minitab Statistics and Six Sigma Software

This is a skill building course designed for Six Sigma Black Belts or others who have significant experience with statistics or Six Sigma and who would like to know how to use Minitab, one of the industry leading software packages for this field. This class is the equivalent of three days long but will be taught as a series of six, on-line webinars, each session approximately 3 hours long.

Minitab Class Details

Pre-requisites:
You must already have a working knowledge of the statistics topics covered in this course. We will primarily show you how to use the software, not explain what the statistics concepts mean to beginners.

Students need to have access to a high speed internet connection (DSL or Cable) and simultaneous phone line.

Students need to install and have ready to go their own copy of Minitab-14 or the free, 30-day demo which is downloadable from the Minitab site. The software may be purchased by us but must be done so at least 14 days prior to class.
bullet Students must have a sound card and telephone style headset and be able to connect to each webinar from a quiet environment (no barking dogs, chattering birds, crying children, ringing phones, etc.) Excessive background noise could make the sessions dysfunctional so offenders may be evicted without warning and without refund!)
