12 Days To Deming
SPC Press is pleased to offer, as a free download, the internationally acclaimed self-study course 12 Days to Deming.
Written by our colleague and friend, Dr. Henry Neave, this class is without a doubt the best self-study curriculum available today on the thoughts and teachings of Dr. W. Edwards Deming.
Those who might be interested in this course should read the Preface and Welcome in the file “A. PLEASE START HERE” to discover why Dr. Neave refers to this as an active-learning course.
