In this newly updated course, "Certified Lean Six Sigma Green Belt (2025)", you will learn the beginner through intermediate tools, concepts and strategies of the Lean Six Sigma methodology. These techniques and ideas are virtually universal, and can be applied at your organization and within your applications.
The tools of Lean Manufacturing show you how to reduce all forms of wastes, or "mudas" as they're called in the Toyota Production System, and to increase the flow through your system. The tools of Six Sigma show you how to reduce variation, the true enemy of quality. Together, Lean Six Sigma provides a wide range of complementary tools and methods to solve those nagging problems in your manufacturing process, reduce defects, reduce the costs of inventory, increase your organization's profits, and improve employee morale.
In this course -- almost 9.0 hours long -- you will learn at a GREENBELTlevel. In other words, you will learn all the major tools at a conceptual level, and for many of the tools, you'll get a chance to dig into the analytical work. No prior statistical knowledge is necessary. And even though this class digs into many different analytical methods within the context of Microsoft Excel, the pace is slow and steady so everyone, regardless of their background can learn these skills.
Plus, when you sign up for this class, you will receive over a dozen downloadable Excel templates and study guides to get you started implementing improvements at your company!!
You will learn all these tools within the DMAIC framework. DMAICis a problem-solving approach developed by the gurus of quality in the mid 20th century. Yet ... it is still very relevant today. DMAIC stand for:Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control. These are the five phases of solving just about any problem.
Here is a small sampling of the simple, yet powerful tools you'll learn at each phase:
DEFINE:
SIPOC Diagrams
Value Stream Mapping
Rolled Through Yield
Overall Equipment Effectiveness
Breakeven Point
Going to the "Gemba"
MEASURE:
Critical-to-Quality Characteristics
Process Capability Analysis
Correlation
Control Charting
