Introduction
Training course introducion / brief
Corporate ethos which sees change as a survival necessity, coupled with continual demands to achieve greater production efficiencies and reduced operating / maintenance costs, means that Engineers and Technologists are faced with ever-increasing plant and process performance targets. As a consequence, more and more reliance is being placed upon the accurate and reliable analysis, representation and interpretation of data. 
practical capabilities
This course aims to provide engineers and technologists with the understanding and practical capabilities needed to convert data into information, and then to represent this information in ways that it can be readily exploited. A Working vocabulary of analytical terms which will enable you to converse with people who are experts in the areas of data analysis, statistics and probability, and to be able to read and comprehend common textbooks and journal articles in this field. 
An understanding and practical experience of a range of the more common analytical techniques and data representation methods, which have direct relevance to a wide range of engineering problems. The ability to recognize which types of analysis are best suited to particular types of problems. A sufficient background and theoretical knowledge to be able to judge when an applied technique will likely lead to incorrect conclusions. 
Course Objectives
At the end of the training course, participants will be able to
  •  Provide delegates with a working vocabulary of analytical terms to enable them to converse with people who are experts in the area of data analysis, statistics and probability and to be able to read and comprehend common textbooks in this field.
