I am studying Six Sigma related statistics from many years now. i forget after few weeks.

How can i retain the Six Sigma Stats/hypothesis/MSA etc. in mind forever.

 

PS: I know the key is practice on real life projects. but want to understand more tips and techniques to retain knowledge in mind.

Very interesting question Deepak.

 

Before I share some tips on how you can remember the concepts for a longer time, I would like to highlight that there is absolutely no need to remember everything specially in today's world where information is available at a click of a button. So even if you don't remember all the tests, it should be fine as long as you remember that there is some statistical method to solve for the problem.

 

Now, coming to your question - 

1. Practice on real life projects (but irony is we don't get projects easily)

2. Practice tools independently. Don't wait for the project, however, start applying tools to specific situations or data sets (this will be easier to do)

3. Visit our Forum and answer our 2 questions per week. These questions will keep you connected with the subject

4. Something that has helped me to remember the concepts for a longer time - pen down your understanding of the tools or even better try explaining the concepts to someone. You will only be able to explain if you understand the concepts

 

Hope this helps!

 

Thankyou Mayank for responding to my question.

 

I agree to all the points you mentioned. 

Yes, I have started following and participating on the forum to learn and refresh memory.

Point 4. I will try to apply with more focus in my life.

 

Thanks again.
