Six Sigma Green Belt English

This program introduces the many methods and tools that are essential to obtaining conclusive results when solving problems and working with continuous improvements in Six Sigma Green Belt projects. There is an emphasis on practical applications and how to achieve good results. The main objective is problem-solving and process development in both manufacturing and service processes. What the participants learn is also suitable for basic problem-solving in other improvement concepts like Lean, TQM and Kaizen.

All processes contain important aspects that can be measured. Effective improvement work should be based on facts. To be able to so it is important to have good knowledge in methods for statistical process analysis. The methods covered in this course can be used to detect any special causes of variation and predict/prevent unwanted behavior in the process. Knowledge in statistical methods can also substantially improve the decision-making process in an organization.
