Companies are turning to multimedia training for several reasons:

Flexibility - With computer-based training, you can teach learners exactly what they need to know at the moment of need. That means when you hire new employees, they can quickly get up to speed without having to wait for the next training class to be held. Existing employees can refresh their skills at any time. In addition, you don't have to shut production lines down just to conduct the training. You can schedule learners for 30 to 60 minute training sessions at the beginning or end of the day or during machine downtime.

Learning retention - Learners who control the pace and direction of their training retain more of what was taught. This type of control can only be achieved through computer-based training. It is impossible to provide that level of customization in traditional classroom training.

Cost savings - With CBT (computer-based training) programs, you purchase the program once and that enables you to provide training to all employees at your site for an unlimited period of time. That means your cost per person goes down with each additional learner.

High quality - Resource Engineering training courses are developed by experienced quality, engineering, and training professionals. Not only is the content impeccable, but the training has been designed to assure an effective and efficient learning experience.

Consistency - No matter how many people go through the training, each will receive the same consistent, technically correct message.

Reduced training time - Studies show computer-based training reduces training time by 40% to 60% over traditional classroom training. Reduced training time means less time away from the job and lower training costs.

Documentation - Learner's progress can be tracked including results on tests and time spent going through the training. Training activity is tracked to support ISO, QS, and other documentation requirements.

SPC Interactive is a complete SPC training for operators. It is available in English, Dutch and German. For more information go to SPC Interactive

FMEA consists of the units FMEA Overview, Design FMEA and Process FMEA.:

• Interactive step-by-step training on how to conduct both design and process FMEAs.
• Real-life examples including two complete case studies of companies that used FMEAs to improve their product design and manufacturing processes.
• Recommendation on how to customize rating scales for your specific design or process so that the FMEA gives you meaningful information and results.
• Specific guidelines on how to link FMEAs to Control Plans.
• Tips for using design of experiments, mistake-proofing, design for assembly/manufacturability, and simulations can be used to reduce high-risk failures.
• Exercises and periodic testing with a complete review and documented results.

Six Sigma startup:

The complete Six Sigma Start-Up course takes approximately 3 hours to complete. However, in some cases your learners will not go through the complete program. Estimated training time for each section is: Six Sigma Environment (1/2 hour); Six Sigma Tools Overview (1 hour); Six Sigma Infrastructure (1 hour); Six Sigma Challenge (1/2 hour).

Mistake-Proof it! consists of the units Mistake-Proofing primer, Effects of Mistake-Proofing, Implementing Mistake-Proofing solutions, Mistake-Proofing in action.

Gage Mentor consists of Gage Primer, Using gages, Gaging applications, gage management and measurement system analysis (MSA). Gage mentor covers the complete training for calibration and MSA required by ISO 9000 and QS 9000.

New products coming up:

Problem Solving is a comprehensive, computer-based interactive training system that teaches employees how to use proven problem-solving techniques to improve manufacturing quality and productivity. Problem Solving is divided into two units: Getting Started and the 8-D Process. Upon completion of the lessons in each unit, learners can take the Fitness Challenge to test their knowledge of what they learned in the unit.

Screening Experiments are the most powerful of Design of Experiments techniques to uncover the power factors in a manufacturing process. With a small number of experimental runs and very little data your can make significant improvements to processes. The most common screening experiment techniques - Taguchi and Plackett-Burman techniques are covered in detail in this course.
