Bridge the gap to practical implementation. This is not your ordinary training course. Most Six Sigma courses seek to educate. Only MRC trains and assists you in the actual implementation of your project.
Case studies don’t cut it here. Your Six Sigma project is chosen by you to drive change on a real organizational issue. Successful completion means you are improving product quality, enhancing customer service and saving your company money.
Project Mentoring is expected, not optional. The instructor goes above and beyond to ensure you are successful. Course price includes (4) individualized onsite project mentoring meetings. Mentoring by a Master Black Belt helps ensure a solid ROI on your first project.
Gain a solid foundation in Six Sigma methodologies and tools, allowing you to actively contribute to process improvement projects.
Six Sigma Green Belt is designed for individuals with little or no prior experience with Six Sigma methodologies. This course is considered a “Dark Green” belt as it emphasizes statistical tools to improve performance and have the goals “stick.” Objectives include:
• Demonstrate the DMAIC methodology
• Document to show progress and results
• Select and apply tools
• Collect and analyze data
This Six Sigma Green Belt course consists of 10 classroom days and 4 individualized onsite mentoring sessions. It will provide a comprehensive overview of Six Sigma concepts, history, roles, implementation, and Green Belt statistical tools. A core part of Six Sigma Green Belt Training is:
• Process Flowcharting | • Analysis of Variance |
• Process Capability | • Multiple Regression |
• Control Charts | • Hypothesis Testing |
• Measurement Systems Analysis (Gage R&R) |
• Goodness of Fit Testing |
• Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) |
• Inferential Statistics |
• Correlation and Regression | • Distributions and Statistical Processes |
• ANOVA | • Cost Analysis and Justification |
• Introduction to Design of Experiments |
After completing this course, participants will be able to create control charts, process maps, and control plans to describe Six Sigma roles within an organization, use statistical tests to improve processes, use Minitab to complete statistical analysis, and define a Six Sigma project. Typically, Green Belt projects save at least $25k to $50k in cost savings in process improvement.
