  • Balance Problems Using Polar Plots – Polar plots are an essential tool for solving imbalance problems and centerline deviations. So, whether you’re looking to converge on a Red X or verify measurement repeatability, this high-impact tool is one you’ll want to be sure you have in your toolbox. 

December 2022 8:00am-10:00am EST/12:00pm-2:00pm EST

  • Chi Square Confirmation Testing – The Chi Square Test of Proportions is an quick and easy nonparametric test when binary Green Y data (i.e. seated/not seated, pass/fail, smooth/blistered) is involved. Perfect for confirming root cause in a problem-solving investigation using various binary Green Y outputs, this workshop with go over the Chi Square Test of Proportions, then allow you to execute a practice test in Excel.
