Practical Statistical Analysis with Minitab for Quality Teams

Quality teams often collect plenty of data but lack the confidence to turn it into decisions. This hands on course teaches how to use Minitab to summarise data, test differences, and study process capability without needing a statistics degree. Delegates work through realistic African manufacturing and service datasets so they can bring reliable analysis back to their own improvement projects.
