In-house training = tailored course contents

Our statistics courses are also available in form of in-house trainings (in English, German or French), either online or on-site. Selected topics of our standard offer can then be combined and, if desired, extended, to specify your ideal course contents. Moreover, the practical PC-based exercises can be based on your data, which facilitates very much the application of the methods learnt after the training.

The participants acquire exactly the knowledge they need to support their daily work.

Take profit of our 25 years’ experience in coaching such trainings! Just contact us for more information or a precise offer.

Course Description

Are you in charge of assuring that your pharmaceutical, biotechnological, cosmetic, or food product remains stable during a certain period? This course covers the most common methods for the analysis of your stability data and the reliable estimation of the product shelf life. It is aimed at scientists who work in development and quality assurance and who already have basic statistical knowledge (as provided in “Visualization of Lab Data with Excel”).

What Are You Going to Learn?

The course emphasizes graphical methods and the selection of appropriate statistical models. Methods are explained through practical examples and exercises from the chemical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries, using Excel supplemented with the validated EasyStat macros. The requirements of the ICH guidelines are also covered in detail.

Who Should Attend?

  • Quality managers, chemists, pharmacists and engineers who are responsible for the stability or the quality of products during a fixed period of time

  • Elementary statistical knowledge is assumed (as provided in “Visualization of Lab Data with Excel”).
