Six Sigma is a set of techniques and statistical analysis tools used to improve processes by reducing the likelihood of defects and variation. Six Sigma was first developed at Motorola and grew to prominence after GE successfully adopted it in the late 80s. Now the concept is widely used across manufacturing, service and financial organisations.
This ten-day Six Sigma Green Belt training course will incorporate the Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Basics stage, so no prior training is required. The programme will develop delegates’ understanding of Six Sigma to a standard where they are confident in implementing the principles and techniques within their organisation and able to lead improvement projects.
The interactive Six Sigma Green Belt training course is split into two five-day sessions with a guided project in between. The first session will cover the basic Lean and Six Sigma tools and principles such as Kanban, DMAIC methodology, and the 7 Wastes, as well as basic improvement project leadership tools. The second session will consist of advanced Six Sigma statistical concepts and tools, and will include key topics such as analysing statistical data, introducing the use of Minitab, and Six Sigma implementation, as well as managing stakeholders’ requirements.
The competency requirements for Six Sigma Green Belts are defined in ISO 18404, which this course is designed to help develop. Successful completion of this Six Sigma Green Belt course will contribute towards an individual being certified by the Royal Statistical Society under the Sector Scheme for ISO 18404.
This ten-day Six Sigma Green Belt training course is available both publicly and in-house. When offered in-house the course can be tailored to client specific requirements, if you would like to hear more please contact us:
