WHAT’S
COVERED

SUMMARY
- This course covers the ASQ Certified Calibration Technician (CCT) body of
knowledge.
AGENDA
1. Statistical Primer/Review
- Basic Summary Statistics, types of data, measures of
center and spread
2. Red Bead Experiment
- Deming’s Red Bead – a simple, hands-on process
simulation that demonstrates some problems with
non-data-driven management and helps build understanding and
motivation for statistical thinking
3. Avoiding Man-Made Chaos
- Seminar that relates a case from Dr. Donald J. Wheeler’s
files demonstrating how management data can be used more
powerfully than it usually is.
4. Introduction to Minitab™
- Structure, menus; similarities and differences between
Minitab™ and MS-Excel™
5. Statistical Control Charts
- Shewhart charts; p, np, c, u ImR charts (XbarR/XbarS
optional and recommended for manufacturing). Interpretation
of control charts. Construction of control charts using
Minitab™ software. Statistical Primer is a prerequisite.
6. Capability
- Capability concepts and capability studies in Minitab™;
the Taguchi loss function
7. Gage R&R in Minitab™
- Using Minitab™ software for Gage R & R studies; R & R
concepts and results interpretation
8. Attribute
Agreement Analysis
- Using Minitab™ software for doing attribute agreement
analysis studies. Concepts and results interpretation.
9. Hypothesis Testing Basics
- Very basic review of simple hypothesis testing concepts.
Type 1&2 errors, alpha and beta risk, null and alternative
hypotheses, criteria for hypotheses.
10. Chi-Square Analysis in Minitab™
- Chi-Square test for independence; helps find
relationships between categories of discrete data. Good
demonstration of how hypothesis testing works, great tool
for transactional process data analysis.
11. Two-Sample T-Tests in Minitab™
- Conducting simple 2-sample t-tests for differences in
means. Basic t-test concepts and interpretation.
12. Paired T-Tests in Minitab™
- Conducting paired-t tests for differences in paired
means. Concepts and interpretation.
13. One-Way ANOVA in Minitab™
- Using one-way ANOVA to discover differences among means
in multiple data sets. Does not include ANOVA for modeling.
Concepts and interpretation.
