Before Attending:

Registration and Confirmation:

Who should attend training?
This class is intended for supervisors, administrators and system managers who will be responsible for implementing InfinityQS software at their facility. We do not encourage operators to attend as this is for individuals responsible for implementing and administrating the software.

Should my IT attend this class?
This class is designed to equip those individuals who will be developing the structure needed to collect data (manually or electronically), develop reports and spearhead the continuous improvement plan. While IT plays an important role, they are not usually the individuals who know the processes, tests and reporting needed to fully implement a real-time SPC software.

What are the minimum requirements for class attendees?
Students should possess a good working knowledge of SPC techniques. Familiarity with Microsoft® Windows™ operating system and Windows applications (For example, Microsoft Word, Excel, Lotus 123, etc.) are necessary so that students are able to navigate through the Windows interface quickly and effectively. Failure to do so will hamper the student's ability to perform many of the required tasks. Additionally, knowledge of basic database concepts is beneficial.

How do I register for the training class?
Contact your Global Account Manager at 800-772-7978.

How will I know when my registration is confirmed?
You will receive an email confirming your registration.

What are the qualifications for the advanced class?
Students must complete the InfinityQS SPC Fundamentals course before registering for the advanced class. If you possess a strong working knowledge of InfinityQS SPC applications, can demonstrate that knowledge and receive permission from the instructor, exceptions will be made.

It is not advisable to book attendance into this class if you have not met the above criteria. Attendance of a non-qualified student to a class of this design will impede the progress of the other attendees. In addition, students must be familiar with the Microsoft® Windows™ operating system, Windows applications and database techniques.

Attending Training Class:

What should I bring to class?
To enhance your experience during the Fundamentals course we suggest you bring an example of check sheets you currently use to collect data. Additionally, you may wish to bring a specification sheet and/or control plan for the area in which you use the check sheet you will be bringing.

We encourage questions and do make time to allow students to build a project using their check sheets and specification sheets and/or control plan. With this in mind it is necessary to remember this is a training course and not consulting so questions will need to be focused on the topics outlined in the coursework description. As time permits we do cover topics beyond the outline.

Participate in all exercises. Before leaving to attend this class, appoint someone in your office to handle the problems or complications so you can freely participate in the class discussions and exercises. We ask all attendees to turn off cell phones and leave their laptops at the hotel.
