Six Sigma is a Quality Improvement methodology structured to reduce
product or service failure rates to a negligible level (roughly 3.4
failures per million opportunities). To achieve six sigma levels, the
Six Sigma process encompasses all aspects of a business, including
management, service delivery, design, production and customer
satisfaction. Six Sigma companies typically spend less than 5 percent
of their revenues addressing and repairing quality problems. As a
philosophy Six Sigma drives business culture and requires a nearly
flawless execution of key processes making Six Sigma a high standard
for companies and individuals to achieve.
Customers place a high value on predictably consistent business
processes and Six Sigma is a proven methodology for delivering
consistent incremental improvement. By reducing process variation Six
Sigma frees the organization to focus on improving process capability
and as sigma levels increase, the cost of poor quality decreases and
profitability increases. This is why Six Sigma is highly associated
with the delivery of consistent world-class quality.
The Six Sigma Greenbelt online program provides an overview of the Six
Sigma concepts and tools including Six Sigma deployment practices,
project development, and the DMAIC problem-solving approach.
Upon registering, you are given an initial six months to complete the program. Should you need more time, you may request a 6-month extension at no additional charge.
“The training helped me understand that Six Sigma and Lean complement each other… The whole process was outstanding. It has brought a better understanding of statistics and how Six Sigma applies to processes.”
