Black Belt - Manufacturing Process Excellence with Lean Six Sigma
This course presents the Six Sigma philosophy. Students learn the DMAIC methodology and apply it to their manufacturing projects.
Learn how to
- use the DMAIC methodology to solve product production problems
- define a problem and objective statement
- determine critical to quality factors
- generate and execute a data collection plan
- use root cause analysis tools to determine the root cause of a problem
- generate improvement strategies
- implement a control system for a newly improved process.
Who should attend
Individuals who are working directly on Six Sigma projects and serving as Black Belts or Green Belts
