Who Should Attend

Process improvement professionals working during a workshop.

This 4-day hands-on workshop is ideal for Directors, Managers, Scientists, Engineers, and Technicians working in R&D, manufacturing, and quality control within the biotech and pharmaceutical industries. If you’re responsible for improving processes, ensuring product quality, or managing data analysis in these fields, this workshop will provide valuable, actionable insights.

Participants will gain practical skills in process optimization, measurement system analysis (MSA), and statistical process control (SPC) using JMP® software. With a small class size of 10–15 participants, the workshop offers a personalized learning experience where attendees receive direct support tailored to their specific needs and challenges.

Workshop Overview

This interactive, 100% hands-on course focuses on measurement integrity, process behavior studies, and design of experiments (DOE), all using the powerful tools within JMP® statistical software. Participants will work through four comprehensive workbooks that provide step-by-step instructions to tackle real-world challenges.

Throughout the workshop, you’ll gain practical experience in applying statistical methods to optimize processes, monitor performance, and drive continuous improvement. Whether you’re aiming to reduce variability, improve product quality, or design more efficient experiments, this course is structured to provide immediate, actionable insights that you can implement within your organization.

By the end of the workshop, participants will have a deeper understanding of how to use data-driven decision-making to improve outcomes, reduce costs, and maintain a competitive edge in the biotech and pharmaceutical industries.
