As part of Palisade’s membership in the ISSSP, we get to participate in what are called Focused Sessions. For these webcast-like sessions, we are sponsors and exert no editorial control over their content . . . but we decide who the speaker is.

So we’ve decided to put the attendees in good hands! Jeff Slutsky, Global Director of Design for Six Sigma for Bausch & Lomb, will be giving a presentation on September 17th called Probabilistic Project Estimation Using Monte Carlo Simulation.

Registration for the event through the ISSSP is free. This presentation will feature @RISK for MS Project. If you ever wanted to find out more about @RISK for Project in Six Sigma and project estimation, this would be a good venue.

Last summer Jeff presented an excellent free live webcast: DFSS-based Design Optimization using Design of Experiments and @RISK. This is also something that can be viewed for free.

As for recommended reading in the future, Jeff is also the coauthor of Design for Six Sigma in Technology and Product Development. I’d highly recommend it, it is an excellent resource that is often used as the corner stone in many DFSS and Critical Parameter Management courses
