Course details
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) - This is the primary unit of study for the Advanced Skill Certificate in Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis. FMEA is a systematic approach to identifying and evaluating potential failures in a process. •
Process Mapping - This unit helps students understand the flow of processes and identify potential failure points. It is an essential skill for FMEA. •
Root Cause Analysis (RCA) - This unit teaches students how to identify the underlying causes of failures, which is a critical component of FMEA. •
Failure Mode Classification - This unit introduces students to the different types of failures, including functional, performance, and safety failures, and how to classify them. •
Effect Analysis - This unit teaches students how to evaluate the potential effects of failures on the process and the organization. •
Risk Prioritization - This unit helps students prioritize potential failures based on their risk level, which is an essential step in FMEA. •
Control Plan Development - This unit teaches students how to develop a plan to control and mitigate potential failures, which is a critical component of FMEA. •
Statistical Process Control (SPC) - This unit introduces students to SPC, which is a statistical method used to monitor and control processes. •
Design of Experiments (DOE) - This unit teaches students how to design experiments to evaluate the effects of changes to a process on its performance. •
Lean Six Sigma - This unit introduces students to the principles of Lean Six Sigma, a methodology that combines process improvement and quality management techniques.
