Level up your career by getting to the Green Belt level in Six Sigma Statistics and learn how to run Green Belt Projects

Are you ready to embark on a rewarding career path? Look no further than Six Sigma. Six Sigma has evolved into a powerhouse methodology embraced by industry titans such as Amazon, General Electric, Google, and 3M and many more. Its proven track record in optimizing business processes has led to widespread adoption across diverse sectors including finance, hospitality, and healthcare. The demand for Six Sigma professionals is skyrocketing, making it an excellent career choice.

We recognise that Six Sigma Beginners and Green belts need more support to understand the complex statistical techniques used within Six Sigma, and this has to be delivered effectively. In this course, the author uses his experience of industrial process improvement and Minitab training to provide candidates with the opportunity to really start understanding Six Sigma and get to the Green Belt Level.

Key Features of this course are:

· It covers all main topics used by Six Sigma Green Belts in easy to understand language.

· Improved and updated for Minitab 21.

· The main Six Sigma tools are explained. We use example-based learning with Quiz Quizzes and exercises to embed the learning.

· The course mainly uses the Assistant and teaches features such as Sequential DOE and Multiple Regression, the Graph Builder.

· Examples cover both continuous and attribute data where possible.
