Training skills to lead improvement projects using DMAIC methodology and related tools, including statistics as well as MINITAB / SigmaXL statistical software.

Target audience: staff from service companies, involved in continuous improvement activities, heads of departments, specialists in Human Resources, Logistics, Financial, Customer Service, etc.

• Six Sigma is one of the most effective methodologies for solving complex problems;

• There are several levels of training in Six Sigma and these are differentiated by the level of complexity of the tools applied: Yellow Belt, Champion, Green Belt, Black Belt and Master Black Belt;

• In general, the first two levels (YB and Champion) are introductory and are addressed to team members and heads of departments, respectively (those who allocate projects, usually managers);

• Green Belt is the first technical level, and the completion of this course must certify a sufficient level of knowledge to lead improvement projects of medium complexity;

The training program is intended for those interested in acquiring skills in leading improvement projects using the Six Sigma methodology and tools.

The presentation of the DMAIC methodology, of the afferent instruments, including statistics as well as of the applications in the hall lasts 6 days and allows to obtain a participation diploma.

The coaching and project presentation module (4 days) is recommended for the participants to have the benefit of the support from the consultant in the successful development of the first real project within their own company and the generation of benefits for the employer.

Successful completion of the project will allow the issuance of a GB Six Sigma Transactional Certificate.
