TRAINING OVERVIEW
OVERVIEW
SDI's objective is to support product development organizations in their quest to produce high-quality products as cost-effectively as possible in a timely manner. The training that we offer is based on two key objectives. The first objective of a session is to provide comprehensive training to the engineers who will be functioning in Systems engineer, lead engineer, design engineer or Six Sigma/DFSS (GB, BB, MBB) leadership roles. Second, the sessions serve as technical problem solving sessions -- just-in-time (JIT) training for cross-functional teams at the beginning of a new program or program phase.
