CfPA - The Center for Professional Advancement, 90 Minute Accredited Online Training
November 9, 2010 at 11:00 a.m.–12:30 p.m. (ET)
Who Should Attend This course is intended for any professionals that are involved in the task of validating the production process for their firm. This is especially of interest to the food and pharmaceutical but is not focused exclusively on those industries. Description The purpose of this 90-minute accredited online training course is to introduce methods for validating a process when there are multiple response variables. Data from real processes will be used for examples. The participants in this course will be introduced to the concepts of checking appropriate for both a single Response variable and a multi-variate Response variable process. The focus will be on the use of appropriate tools for achieving this task of Validating rather than mathematical derivations.
Module 1: • Review the concepts of parallel coordinate plotting needed for this course • Define Validity carefully • Demonstrate the need for the second component of Validity: Consistency – in the context of a single response variable
Module 2: • Discuss a method for checking the Consistency for the case of many response variables • Possible reasons for the lack of consistency
Module 3: • Apply the technique to several real life problems – Case studies • Summary
