What this course is
A free, self-paced course on apparel quality: the quality management system and control plans, incoming and in-line inspection, AQL sampling and inspector calibration, measurement audit, textile and colourfastness testing, and the statistical tools that show whether a process can hold a specification. Four modules, each ending with a five-question quiz.
Who it is for
- • QA and QC officers moving into a supervisory role
- • Inspectors who want the statistics behind their sampling plan
- • Merchandisers and buyers who must read an inspection or test report
- • Laboratory staff and factory quality managers
What you will be able to do
- • Write a control plan that names the check, the standard, the frequency and the reaction
- • Draw a single or double AQL sampling plan and defend the accept or reject decision
- • Run a measurement audit and separate operator error from real process variation
- • Read a laboratory report on colourfastness and physical performance and act on it
- • Judge process capability from control chart data rather than opinion
