Course Overview
This course focuses on full factorial design methods, where all factor combinations are tested to fully understand main effects and interactions. It builds a strong foundation in experimental design by covering effect estimation, interaction behavior, orthogonality, and statistical interpretation using regression-based analysis. The included course structure shows that learners will also work through graphical tools and DOE Pro XL examples to reinforce practical application.
What You Will Learn in This Course
You will learn how to design and analyze experiments such as a 2² factorial design example, 2³ factorial design example, and more advanced cases like full factorial design with 3 factors and 3 levels. The course also helps clarify when full factorial designs are preferred over fractional factorial design approaches and how to interpret results with confidence.
Who This Course Is For
This course is ideal for engineers, analysts, and Six Sigma professionals who need a structured way to evaluate multiple variables simultaneously. It is also suitable for those searching for a 2 level full factorial design course online that connects theory with hands-on Excel-based analysis.

What’s Included
DOE PRO XL DEMO
DOE PRO is an advanced Design of Experiments package with multiple response capability and advanced analysis and optimization features. Create designs, analyze designs using multiple regression, plot results, optimize and predict, all from within Microsoft Excel.
DOE Pro XL integrates into Excel to speed up your data analysis workflow. Instead of copying and pasting your data into another application, with DOE Pro XL you can store, analyze, and present your results within Excel.
What Sets Us Apart
Built on Proven DOE and Six Sigma Expertise
Air Academy Associates delivers training grounded in real-world application across Lean Six Sigma, Design of Experiments, and performance improvement. This course is not isolated theory—it connects full factorial design directly to process improvement and data-driven decision-making.
Complete Understanding of Interactions and Effects
Unlike simplified screening approaches, this course emphasizes full factorial experimentation where all combinations are tested. Learners gain a deeper understanding of interactions, which is critical when working with designs such as full factorial design with 2 factors 3 levels or full factorial design with 3 factors 3 levels.
Excel-Based Learning With DOE Pro XL
The course includes DOE Pro XL, allowing you to design experiments, run regression analysis, visualize results, and optimize processes directly in Excel. This eliminates the need for complex standalone tools and aligns with how most professionals already work.
Designed for Immediate Application
The course structure includes graphical analysis, statistical modeling, and optimization, ensuring that learners can apply concepts right away. From interpreting a 2² factorial design example to using a full factorial design calculator approach inside Excel, the focus remains practical.
Part of a Complete Lean Six Sigma Training Path
This course aligns with a Lean Six Sigma Training and Certification company framework and supports professionals progressing through Lean Six Sigma White Belt, Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt, Lean Six Sigma Green Belt and Lean Six Sigma Black Belt programs. It strengthens experimental design capability within continuous improvement initiatives.
Reviews & Testimonials
“I would highly recommend this Lean Six Sigma Online Greenbelt training. The course and tools are designed to bring success to the students & businesses. The skills learned will bring value throughout your career.”
“Air Academy provides high quality consulting, coaching and education developed with close partnership with the client so that the efforts are well aligned with organizational goals. The expertise in Lean Six Sigma is superb and in addition, there is a wealth of leadership coaching that is invaluable.

“Air Academy Associates’ timeliness of performance is outstanding. They provided all requested support on time. They were proactive in setting up status meetings and managing control documents to assure deliverables were delivered on time and as specified.”
What did you like most? “the coaching session and videos, the possibility to stop the video if something is not clear”
Lisa was really the best. Also, videos were really good – Thanks to Lisa and Mark! “
“The online courses can be taken within the time frame that suits for my daily work. Yet, there are scheduled virtual sessions setting the milestones.”
“I thought this would be training like all the rest, I was very wrong. I found the instructor to be very interesting and captive with what could be thought of as dry data. He did not read from a power point, did not teach strictly from a book, but provided information that got me excited about making a difference in our operation which ultimately improved the bottom line. I was not trained only, but was given the opportunity to certify, which verified I understood the training.”

FAQs
What is a full factorial design?
A full factorial design is an experiment where all possible combinations of factors and levels are tested. This allows complete estimation of main effects and interactions.
What is a 2² factorial design example?
A 2² factorial design includes two factors, each at two levels, resulting in four experimental runs. It is one of the most common introductory designs used in DOE.
What is the difference between full factorial design and fractional factorial design?
Full factorial design tests all combinations, while fractional factorial design uses a subset of runs to reduce effort. Full designs provide complete interaction information, while fractional designs are typically used for screening.
Does this course include practical examples?
Yes. The course includes examples of full factorial design and analysis using DOE Pro XL, along with graphical and statistical interpretation methods.
Is this course suitable for beginners?
Yes. The course starts with foundational concepts and builds toward analysis and optimization, making it suitable for both new and experienced professionals.
Can I apply this in excel?
Yes. DOE Pro XL integrates directly with Excel, allowing you to design experiments, analyze results, and visualize outputs without leaving your workflow.
Does this course cover multi-level designs?
Yes. While focused on 2-level designs, the course also helps you understand extensions such as full factorial design with 3 levels and how they compare.
