Minitab Statistics and Six Sigma Software
This is a skill building course designed for Six Sigma Black Belts, strong
Green Belts or others who have significant experience with statistics or Six
Sigma and who would like to know how to use Minitab. They are 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, totaling 15 hours. Despite it's formidable power and scope, it's
hard to use and has an awkward user interface
so is often difficult to learn without some sort of help.
