SMTA Releases New Online Training Course on Design of Experiments

Minneapolis, MN – The SMTA announced that a new 101-level online training course, “DOE 101: Design of Experiments,” is now available in the training section of the SMTA website.

Design of Experiments (DOE) is a tool that engineers can use to efficiently identify interactions between process factors to save time and materials, with the minimum amount of testing. Using real-world examples from the stencil printing process in electronics manufacturing, instructors Jim Hall and Dr. Ron Lasky will guide you through this valuable process analysis and improvement methodology.

This course is useful for engineers who want to get a fundamental understanding of DOEs and optimize their assembly processes. A basic understanding of statistics and some familiarity with the electronics assembly process is recommended.

As with all SMTA online training courses, “DOE 101” was peer-reviewed by members of a task force assembled by the training committee to ensure non-commercialism and quality.

The recorded presentation duration is about one hour cumulative and includes a 10-question quiz to confirm knowledge retention. The course format is online, with on-demand access for up to one year. SMTA membership is required for access.

This and other courses are offered at an affordable rate for SMTA members.
