Course Overview
Lean Six Sigma Black Belts are the core of Lean Six Sigma Scheme in Six Sigma organisations. They have developed a synergistic proficiency between technical discipline and the Six Sigma strategies, tactics, and tools. These individuals will continually work towards institutionalising the effective use of these tools throughout the corporation, its customers, and its suppliers. They also bear the responsibility of leading and driving projects with high business impact.
This course provides a comprehensive covered of Lean and Six Sigma techniques that enable the participant to grasp the essential skills to lead Lean Six Sigma projects in their organisations. Through the coaching and in-class exercises, the participants receive practical experience from Six Sigma practitioners who hold the participants hand-in-hand to identify and implement the projects in the participants’ organisations.
The Six Sigma Black Belt Certification Programme, conducted by Six Sigma Master Black Belts, contains afternoon seminars/ workshops. The participant is required to complete at least one project with the close supervision of the Six Sigma Master Black Belt within nine months after the successful passing of the Black Belt academic examination.
