  • Choosing and managing Lean Six Sigma projects. 
  • Process and Value Stream Mapping (VSM), and process flow optimization. 
  • Choosing metrics, establishing a measurement system, and collecting data. 
  • Quantifying the performance gap between current and future state process analysis.
  • Identify decision-making data in processes through the application of data analysis tools.
  • Normal distribution, process capability analysis, and measurement systems analysis
  • Statistics for Six Sigma including relationships between variables, correlation, and regression analysis. 
  • Basic Design of Experiments and Design for Six Sigma.
  • Lean essentials and the removal of waste from a process. 
  • Implementation of Lean Six Sigma tools to close performance gaps, reduce process variation, and center performance on a target value.
  • Application of basic statistical process control methods to monitor performance.

Earning a Certificate

The project should demonstrate that the participant is able to apply the DMAIC methodology to improve a process in the workplace.
