In statistical experimental design, one tries to answer experimental questions as efficiently as possible, i.e. with few experiments, by means of a planned series of individual experiments. In our training courses on statistical design of experiments, competent trainers with sound theoretical knowledge provide you with practical know-how on the construction and evaluation of experimental designs. In our training courses, we place great emphasis on practice-relevant exercises and business games, in which we take your specific requirements into account. Our flexible approach also ensures that different levels of prior knowledge are taken into account. STATCON training courses do not follow a rigid scheme.ย
Requirements and thus ensure high customer satisfaction and practical relevance.

Design Expert - Quality by Design
Course: Quality by Design (QbD) โ Statistical Experimental Design for Pharmaceutical Processes
Quality by Design (QbD) is the FDA-recommended method for developing and optimizing pharmaceutical products and processes. The central idea is to define factor spaces within which consistent product quality is ensured. Once a design space is approved by regulatory authorities, the process can be adjusted within these limits without requiring re-approval.
This methodology provides new flexibility in the production of pharmaceutical products and medical devices, reducing regulatory hurdles.
What You Will Learn in This Course:
๐ Fundamentals of Quality by Design (QbD) & Design of Experiments (DoE)
๐ Statistical Tools: Hypothesis Testing & Regression Analysis
๐ Screening Designs: Efficiently Identifying Key Factors
๐ Response Surface Designs: Defining and Optimizing Design Spaces
๐ Validation of Design Spaces for Regulatory Approval
๐ Practical Implementation with Design-Expertยฎ Software
The course will follow a complete QbD cycle using FDA examples and statistically model it with Design-Expertยฎ software.
Requirements:
๐ Basic knowledge of Design-Expertยฎ is beneficial.
๐ Knowledge of regression analysis and hypothesis testing is helpful but not required.
