Questions

Good to know

Do I need a JMP license?

Yes. You can use the free JMP viewer or your company license. We help you get set up before the course.

Will we work on real data?

Yes, on demonstration or sanitized STDF data, so you practice on realistic cases without exposing anything confidential.

Do I need to program?

No. The work is visual and point-and-click. Optional scripting is shown for those who want it.

Can my whole team join?

Yes. Team and corporate rates are available. Contact us and we will arrange it.
