Statistical Methods for Product and Process Monitoring

Wherever products and processes are tested and monitored, the use of statistical methods is necessary to make decision-relevant statements. This course is designed for practitioners who have to work with test data on site. They learn the theoretical background of statistical methods to the extent necessary for practical implementation.
