The DOE User Meeting will be held at Le CNAM (the National Conservatory of Arts and Crafts) in the heart of Paris, close to the Louvre and Notre Dame.

The conference will include a pre-conference workshop on June 6, followed by the 2-day user meeting on June 7–8 with talks by DOE Experts, as well as practical case study applications by industry practitioners. We will explore the latest design of experiments (DOE) techniques, and demonstrate new features in Design-Expert software, version 11. In addition, you will have the opportunity to get help from DOE consultants on your own particular applications. Our expert trainers are offering a pre-meeting workshop on June 6th. Sign up for Practical DOE “Tricks of the Trade” and learn advanced DOE skills that you can take home and apply. This is your chance to network, increase your DOE knowledge, learn from others' successes and challenges—all while visiting the City of Lights!

Stat-Ease, Inc. and CQ Consultancy hosted the 6th European DOE User Meeting in Leuven, Belgium on May 18th-20th, 2016. We offered two design of experiments (DOE) workshops on the 18th, and then the two-day DOE User Meeting on the 19th-20th. The venue at the historic Faculty Club was charming--complete with cobblestone streets, flowers in full bloom, and delicious artistically-arranged cuisine. The technical program was also excellent. We learned about the latest techniques in design of experiments (DOE) from well-known speakers in the field, and practitioners from a variety of industries spoke about their DOE successes, as well as some not-so-successful experiments and what they learned from them.

Attendees had the chance to network with others and consult with experts about their DOE questions. A highlight of the meeting was our special event on the 19th that included a concert by the choral group, Currende, a delicious dinner at Improvisio, and then beer sampling under the stars at The Capital. A good time was had by all. Hopefully you can join us for the 7th DOE User Meeting in 2018. Look for details to come!
