This course is for you if you want to learn more about Six Sigma or refresh your knowledge of the core components of Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing. Six Sigma skills are in high demand by employers both nationally and internationally. These skills have been proven to help improve business processes and increase operational efficiency. In this course, we will cover the Define phase and introduce you to the Measure phase of the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control) process. You will learn about designing and implementing Six Sigma projects, become familiar with project management tools, become familiar with statistics and understand their importance to Six Sigma, and finally learn about data collection and its importance to an organization. Each module includes readings, videos, and a quiz to help you ensure you understand the material and concepts covered. You will also have the opportunity to participate in peer review exercises to enable you to apply the material to your daily life. Our applied curriculum is built around the latest guide, The Certified Six Sigma Handbook (2nd Edition), and students will develop/learn the fundamentals of Six Sigma. Registration includes online access to the course content, projects, and resources, but does not include the companion text, The Certified Six Sigma Handbook (2nd Edition). The companion text is not required to complete the assignments. However, this text is a recognized reference used by professionals in the field. Additionally, this text is highly recommended for those wishing to advance in the field of Six Sigma and ultimately obtain certification from professional agencies such as the American Society for Quality (ASQ).
