Public Training Class
To be an honest to participant in YW’s training class. I have learned the DOE techniques before and always found hard to understand and difficult to apply into daily work. Until I participated in YW’s DOE class, not only I have understood the theory but more than the techniques and practical experiences. Now I understood that the DOE indeed is quite simple, just 9 steps – 1. DOE objective, 2. Select Output Y, 3. CNX methodology to define X and etc. Even I can explain to others about the DOE methodology. The class has reduced my worrying on DOE methodology by using the DOE Pro XL and Minitab software (since the stack of analysis it’s really pain if done by manually). Throughout the factors optimization process, we can satisfy our process Cpk needs, as the DOE experiments results. Hence, I was many thanks to instructor YW for his hospitality and strong explanation of DOE (since that’s always the answers for your doubt in the class is a dream). If any class that conducted by YW, for sure I will join in if have opportunities.
I had heard the DOE before, but lesser chances to really get involves. Only understand that it’s for engineering work to analyze and solve the engineering problem. This time it’s my honest to participate in this training, to obtain maximum benefits. The teaching is really interested, easier, and more interactions. Not only the mathematic solution, but more than practical case studies in order to understand more on DOE techniques. I acknowledge that the DOE is not a simple class, it need ourselves to really practice the methodology frequently in order to really engraft the techniques into our minds. Thank you very much for the hard facilitation of instructor, and by the same time I would like to say, “Teacher! You’ve done a hard work!”
