Six Sigma Green Belt Training with Certification

You will be introduced to this worldwide recognized method for the continuous improvement of existing processes and products by experienced Six Sigma Master Black Belts. You may choose between English or German training material. The seminar will have a practical orientation, will be conducted in small groups and the participants will be coached to achieve certification.

Target Audience

Persons keen to improve existing processes in a structured way, especially:

Aimed at participants from all industry sectors (e.g. renewable energy, aerospace, consumer products, electronics, medical devices etc.) of small & medium-sized businesses and global enterprises producing products.

Subject

Six Sigma is a continuous improvement method, which drastically reduces variation and defects in processes, products and services, directly generates financial savings and therefore increases the operating efficiency. Six Sigma focuses on the systematic application of statistical methods and quality tools and ensures that decisions are made on the basis of statistically sound datasets instead of assumptions and guesses.

Six Sigma is a structured and disciplined approach to solve critical problems from an economic point of view, which cannot be solved with other methods. It provides relatively fast tangible results out of short, dynamic projects with a high success factor. All are linked to the business strategy and related to customer needs. Six Sigma projects have clearly defined and financially valued improvement goals and focus on the quality and efficiency of corporate processes.

The application of this method in particular yields an increase of customer satisfaction, reduction of warranty and courtesy costs, increase of company internal efficiency, reduction of process and/or product costs and therefore direct, tangible, financial savings.

Green Belt

Green Belts are trained method experts working and/or leading small improvement projects next to their main function. Here, the focus is on systematic problem solving with statistical analysis tools. Green Belt projects can be a part of a larger Black Belt project.

Objectives & Benefits

After a successful participation in the seminar the participants will have acquired the following skills:

Contents

Six Sigma projects are executed using the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) approach. As part of this approach, the following quality tools and statistical techniques are conveyed in the seminar:

  • SIPOC,
  • Voice of Customer,
  • Thought Map,
  • Process Map,
  • Cause and Effect Matrix (C&E),
  • Cause and Effect Diagram (C&E),
  • Process FMEA,
  • Basic Statistics,
  • Introduction to Control Charts,
  • Measurement System Analysis (Var. & Attr. Data),
  • Data Collection Plan,
  • Process Capability (Variable & Attribute Data),
  • Graphical Analysis,
  • Confidence Intervals,
  • Hypothesis Tests (t, F, Chi², P),
  • Analysis of Variance (one-way ANoVA),
  • Correlation and Single Regression,
  • Multi-Vari Studies,
  • Design of Experiments (Full Factorial),
  • Planning of Improvement Actions,
  • Validation of Improvement Actions,
  • Control Plans,
  • Statistical Process Control (SPC),
  • Introduction to Lean, TOC and DfSS.

Execution

In this intensive seminar the participants will be introduced to the Six Sigma method and learn the tools necessary for application. The method will be practiced in groups by applying typical tools to a case study that runs across the training. Each participant will apply the acquired skills to a Six Sigma Project parallel to the seminar. The aim is to save at least € 25.000, - annually or to achieve a ROI (Return on Investment) of 2 per project. From the second week of the seminar onward each participant will present the project progress in form of a project review.

The selection of an appropriate project can be supported by an experience trainer as Master Black Belt. As we consider it absolutely necessary to apply the acquired skills to a project as soon as possible, coaching is an important element for a successful completion of a 6 Sigma project. We recognize this need of professional support after the seminar and offer individual coaching via email and phone to every participant.

Certification

The participant will get a confirmation of attendance after completing the seminar and passing the exam on the last day of the seminar (Session 2). The test will be a written multiple choice test and takes two hours for all participants.

After passing the Six Sigma Green Belt exam and the successful completion of the project the participant will receive the “Six Sigma GREEN BELT CERTIFICATE”.

Innovensys has developed a demanding standard for the certification of the “Six Sigma Green Belt”, which is corresponding to the international standard for “Certified Six Sigma Green Belt” (CSSGB) of the American Society for Quality (ASQ) in content, scope and duration. Furthermore, it fulfills the minimal standards for the Six Sigma Green Belt Certification of the European Six Sigma Club (ESSC).
