Course Information
Course Overview
Develop your Problem-Solving skill! Practical step-by-step guide for resolving Complex Problems.
The main goal of the course is to give you the most potent practical tool for Solving Complex Problems.
This Algorithm has 8 STEPS. In a logical chain from receiving not apparent Complex Problem, step-by-step, through the whole Algorithm, you will find from 10 to 100 new solutions and even more depending on your efforts.
STEP 1 will help you to frame the Problem into such a formulation that reveals the task of how to eliminate any Simple or Complex Problem.
STEP 2 aims to divide Simple and Complex Problems. You will be able to make self-elimination of a Simple Problem, even if it is not from your profile branch of industry. And if the Problem is Complex, then you go to the next STEP 3.
STEP 3 shows you how to find the root cause of the Complex Problem. At STEP 3, the ideas to solve your Complex Problem begin to appear.
STEP 4 gives you the way to find resources to solve your Complex Problem.
STEP 5 leads you to frame your desired result in the system without a Complex Problem. STEP 5 shows how to apply resources that you found in STEP 4 to eliminate a Complex Problem with low costs and even without them. As a result, of STEP 5, you will get several ideas to solve your Complex Problem. And with ideas to resolve an issue, you may get contradictory demands to the elements of the system in which there is a Problem. Then you go to the next STEP 6.
STEP 6 will help you formulate contradictory demands to the element of the system in which there is a Problem. As a result of STEP 6, you will choose the principle for resolving contradictions. In case of severe Problem, when an accepted principle did not lead you to a solution, you go to the next STEP 7.
STEP 7 will get you acquainted with special techniques out of 40 available in TRIZ to resolve physical contradictions and to find an inventive solution to your Complex Problem.
STEP 8 leads you to the most powerful solution from the list of already found while doing all seven STEPs of the Algorithm.
You may ask me: what kind of Problems can I resolve using this Algorithm?
If I answer: "ANY." You, probably, would not believe me.
But it's about 95% of all Problems around us.
And what kind of those 5% Problems you won't fix by this tool - the only those that need preliminary researches when the nature of an undesirable phenomenon is not known.
After finishing this course, it would be easy for you to find a lot of Solutions to ANY Complex Problems.
You'll see things around you in another way. What does it mean?
All things around you can help you to Solve a Problem with low costs and even without them. You need to know-how.
With this Engineering Problem-Solving Algorithm, you'll succeed in any severe case.
But it's not a magic wand - you will have to work a lot! And as a reward, there will be a lot of reliable decisions!
And last, but not least: only practicing the Engineering Problem-Solving Algorithm will increase your skills and as a result, increase your market price!
P.S.: From The World Economic Forum, TOP 10 high demanded soft skills:
1. Complex Problem-Solving
2. Critical Thinking
3. Creativity

Go ahead, enroll in the course!
Get better at Solving Complex Problems!
It's worth a lot!

It is giving me the information I wanted. The English used by the instructor and the text can be difficult to understand at times. It is really noticeable in the quizzes and the assignments. I struggled not with the material but understanding what was being asked. However, it is worth the effort, the information and instructor are excellent. If the instructor could get a native English speaker with some technical acumen to help copy-edit some of the materials that make my rating 5 stars.
