About the Course

This course is for you if you are looking to dive deeper into Six Sigma or strengthen and expand your knowledge of the basic components of green belt level of Six Sigma and Lean. Six Sigma skills are widely sought by employers both nationally and internationally. These skills have been proven to help improve business processes and performance. This course will take you deeper into the principles and tools associated with the "Improve" and "Control" phases of the DMAIC structure of Six Sigma. It is highly recommended that you complete the "Yellow Belt Specialization" and the courses "Six Sigma and the Organization (Advanced)," "Six Sigma Advanced Define and Measure Phase," and "Six Sigma Advanced Analyze Phase" before beginning this course. In this course, your instructors will introduce you to, and have you apply, some of the tools and metrics that are critical components of Six Sigma. This course will provide you with the advanced knowledge of root cause analysis, lean tools, control plan, process control, and statistical process control (SPC) as they are associated with Six Sigma and Lean. Every module will include readings, videos, and quizzes to help make sure you understand the material and concepts that are studied. Registration includes online access to course content, projects, and resources but does not include the companion text The Certified Six Sigma Green Belt Handbook (2nd edition). The companion text is NOT required to complete the assignments. However, the text is a recognized handbook used by professionals in the field. Also, it is a highly-recommended text for those wishing to move forward in Six Sigma and eventually gain certification from professional agencies such as American Society for Quality (ASQ)....

Content is not bad. There is indeed what some useful information in the course.

But the use case for the assignment ought to be provided by the trainers, as it is unrealistic to expect the students to provide their own case. Also, it would be logical to let the assignment be developed in phases distributed along the course, as the content is provided, as opposed to confront the student with a whole amount of work right at the end.

Very intresting course on six sigma. One set back though is that they are not focusing on case studies. Recommendation is to add a course and present case studies to really understand how things work in the real world.

Definition of the DMAIC and of the tools are excellent though.

The course has been outstanding for Six Sigma advanced improvement and control phases for those professionals who need to develop greater skills in the practical use of continuous improvement methodologies with sustainable process control. Full review as follows: Key Highlights: Coverage: In-depth knowledge-from deep insights into the "Improve" and "Control" phases of the DMAIC framework, it connects the dots from improvement identification to sustainability. Practical Application: Case studies and industrial examples have made the whole learning process easy to implement in practical business processes. Control Tools: The emphasis given to the tools, such as control charts, process monitoring plans, and visual management systems will provide the necessary skills for effective sustaining of process improvements. It focuses on sustainability in order to build the control plan for not going back and sustaining the gains. That means this focus will definitely assure the long-term benefits. Strengths: The course is well-structured, logical flow, and goes along with the DMAIC framework. Introduction of higher-order tools like FMEA - Failure Mode and Effects Analysis, and SPC-Statistical Process Control, is done in an easy-to-understand manner with their applications. The interactive elements, such as quizzes and exercises, further help in solidifying the learning points and providing immediate feedback. Areas of Improvement: Inclusion of more industry-based examples will enhance relatability for professionals hailing from diverse backgrounds. A live simulation or guided case study involving a project may add more value by actually letting the learner apply the tools in a controlled environment. Final Thoughts: This course is a necessary addition in any professional learning curve for process improvement. It gives more than an overview: it provides actionable strategies one can make to ensure the changes implemented are robust and efficient, aligning with the organizational goals. Highly recommended for those furthering or currently involved in Six Sigma projects.
