Six Sigma Black Belt

Program Overview

The Center´s Black Belt Program is the final program that leads an individual to mastering Black Belt level Lean Six-Sigma Projects. This particular program is a two-part program comprising of ten (10) days of intense training integrated with the individual high-end Lean Six-Sigma identified project. This program continues the learning by focusing on studying the full applications of the DMAIC model and developing their advanced Lean Six-Sigma process skills. In addition our Master Black Belt Facilitator will provide the student practiced skills required to identify, evaluate, select and manage a Lean Six-Sigma project(s).

The Black Belt Program completes the students learning as it applies specifically to;

Having a full, complete understanding of the Lean/Six Sigma Tool Set
Understand from executing several simple and complex projects/exercises using appropriate tools
Having the ability to use the DMAIC method & coach others in providing inputs
Having an advanced understanding of graphical analysis tools
Practice identifying projects, appropriate tools & how to implement for business gains

Our format followed is for two weeks of training in class integrated with projects defined by student and coach. The projects are broken into two pieces, one during the class and one onsite. Complexity of second project will determine length.

Program Syllabus

Design for Lean Six Sigma,
Review of Black Belt qualification projects

Notes: A Lean Six-sigma project will be an integral part of the Black Belt workshop and the Black Belt certification process. Projects selected shall be real time and selected from the participant´s on-going mission requirements. Each participant is required to use the tools taught in the workshop when completing their projects. The student will work directly with their internal coach and the MBB in selecting this project.
Workshop assignments and exercises include:

Project evaluation and selection/review
Six Sigma Project Development, Resource Determination and Planning
Six Sigma application exercises
Case Study exercises

Upon the successful completion, the student will be able to:

Provide advice and guidance on Green Belt projects
Plan and manage Six Sigma projects
Perform advanced statistical and data analyses
Implement process controls and improvement procedures

What the student will take home

The student upon successful completion of the program and project will be able to:

Perform a failure mode and effects analysis and a variance of analysis
Select relevant advanced Six Sigma projects
Develop a Six Sigma project implementation & resource plan with measures
Apply core statistical methods for collecting and analyzing data
Apply the DMAIC model to selected advanced projects
Black Belt Certification (after successful completion of second project)
