Six Sigma Black Belt Training for
Technical Professionals and Engineers
This ten-day Black Belt program is designed to provide technical professionals with application-oriented Six Sigma training. Participants will master this powerful methodology and learn how to apply Six Sigma in their current environment. Many organizations have achieved amazing results on their bottom line through the application of Six Sigma.
Examples:
- Manufacturing: Reduced customer DOAs 6% to 1%; increased manufacturing yield by 40%; reduced warranty costs.
- Engineering: Product development 4 times performance increase; 10 times reliability improvements.
You will learn Six Sigma from the best. Our facilitators are GE trained Master Black Belts. Also, all course examples are for a technical audience. Participants will understand and apply the math behind the approach.
Course content includes:
- Instruction and application of the DMAIC Six Sigma Methodology: Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control
- Instruction and application of the Design for Six Sigma (DFSS): Define, Identify, Design, Optimize, Verify and Monitor No other program covers both!
- All course examples demonstrate the application of the Six Sigma methodology to technical problems
- Project work: Participants apply the Six Sigma methodology to a current project and receive project mentoring throughout the course
- Participants receive instruction and coaching in the use of Minitab software
- Accessibility to on-going mentoring to help participants continue Six Sigma implementation.
With Six Sigma Black Belt certification, you will be able to:
- Lead multiple projects to successful completion using Six Sigma methodology
- Apply the systematic steps of world-class, problem-solving methodology
- Drive awareness of the methodology and tools to team members and the broader organization
- Mentor Green Belts and Yellow Belts
Participants completing our Six Sigma Black Belt Certification are eligible for six MSOE graduate credits: three graduate credits for EM-7461 Six Sigma Black Belt Concepts by passing the certification exam and three graduate credits for EM-7462 Six Sigma Black Belt Project for successfully completing a project.
