The Introduction to Statistical Process Control (SPC) Workshop is designed as
introductory course to discuss statistical methods and where they may be employed
in a processing operation. The SQF Quality Code requires certified companies to be
competent in SPC to reduce process variation and drive root cause analysis.
Under the SQF Quality Code, a quality management system must include SPC
methods which shall be employed to improve process efficiency and product quality.
The code also requires that SPC training is provided to line operators, quality
inspectors, and supervisory staff.

The course consists of lecture sessions that will cover basic data handling and
analysis, sampling methods and date collection, interpreting averages, distribution
and variation, control charts, and process capability.

The course is ideally suited for:

• Production
• QA/QC
• Supervisors
