Introduction:
Lean Six Sigma saves organizations time and money through continuous improvement. Employers therefore often pay a premium for Six Sigma trained and certified managers. Our Lean Six Sigma Black Belt training teaches you the strategies and tools necessary for leading process improvement in your organization and provides you with the Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Certification. Take your career to the next level by getting your Lean Six Sigma certification today! Upon successfully completing the course (attending all days, completing all assignments, passing the final exam, and submitting and passing the final Lean Six Sigma project), you will earn the Lean Six Sigma Black Belt (LSSBB) credential from Project Management Academy®. Project Management Academy is accredited by the Council for Six Sigma Certification (CSSC), an Official Industry Standard for Six Sigma Accreditation. Your final Lean Six Sigma project must demonstrate your ability to carry out a Six Sigma project (from creation to the final stages using the DMAIC/DMADV method). Note: This course is conducted 2 Days/Week for 5 Weeks (Wednesdays & Fridays: 9am-5pm CST) for a total of 10 days of training to allow time for review and project development between course sessions. This course will earn you 80 PDUs.
Objectives:
Initiate Six Sigma projects to bring about significant and lasting organizational change
Formulate project selection criteria to focus Six Sigma initiatives on projects that will have the greatest chance of success
Apply the DMAIC improvement process to solve business problems
Develop process maps to gain a full understanding of an existing process
Incorporate the “”y = f(x)”” method to determine the relationship between key inputs and process outputs
Employ Six Sigma data-driven approaches to solve problems at their root cause and prevent their recurrence
Learn to use the power of Minitab software for data analysis – 6-month license included
Reduce waste and defects by applying Lean and Six Sigma principles
Implement control charts to monitor how a process is performing over time
