Through interactive lectures and group and individual presentations, the course will allow participants to practice the skills they have acquired through exercises and case studies. Additionally, videos will be shown on companies that implemented the Six Sigma methodology. Throughout the course, a case study will show how Six Sigma can be applied within an organization.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
Managers, supervisors, and professionals who wish to fully utilize the Six Sigma approach in their organizations or gain professional certification or learn how Six Sigma relates to work and business improvement.
Course pre-requisites:
• Knowledge of basic and intermediate statistics: It is suggested that participants take some time to review basic statistics. Books or e-learning modules could be used to refresh participants’ knowledge before attending the course.
• Familiarity with the seven essential problem-solving tools
• At least five years of practical experience in business processes
• Participants will benefit more if they come prepared with a business improvement idea that may positively impact their organization (e.g., cost savings of $10,000 to $50,000). The knowledge and skills gained in this course will be applied to transform their ideas into projects. However, this is an exam-based certification, and no project submission is required.
Participants must bring their laptops pre-installed with Minitab statistical software. Computers must have administrator privileges to allow participants to install Minitab software and access a USB.
Participants attending this course will receive 40+ quality tool templates that will be useful during their project’s deployment.
