It generates more robust and interpretable data and allows for faster identification of optimal experimental conditions. DoE is an essential element of quality by design (QbD) and six sigma analyses. Experimental design allows for optimization of continuous improvement techniques in the laboratory. Many DoE techniques only require a calculator or spreadsheet software. This course will provide participants with analysis tools to immediately use in their laboratories, including an introduction to available experimental design software. Practical applications will be used to illustrate experimental designs and data analyses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\"><b>WHO SHOULD ATTEND<br \/><\/b>Analytical chemists at all levels will benefit from this course.
