Albert Plant

With a background of thirty year’s practical experience, Albert Plant is Ireland’s leading trainer and consultant in the application of statistics.  Combining degrees in Engineering and Statistics, he brings a unique blend of a deep understanding of manufacturing technology with expertise in all aspects of statistical data analysis to his training courses.  Attendees on Albert’s training courses include people, many with PhD’s, undertaking the most advanced research and development in pharmaceuticals, medical devices, nanotechnology, and other leading-edge specialities, who require statistical skills to understand the outcome of their research work.

Many customers require that the training courses be customised, and Albert has developed a high level of expertise in meeting this requirement.  His In-House courses typically incorporate company data, and both the length and content of the courses are agreed in advance with the customer, to meet very specific needs.

Minitab is the leading brand of general-purpose statistical software. Albert has used Minitab in his training and consultancy work for more than 25 years.  He proposed to the Minitab company that they introduce a module in Acceptance Sampling, and he contributed to the early development of the module, which was launched with new versions of the software in 2006.  Albert also has expertise in other statistical software, such as Design Expert, which he uses in Design of Experiments.
