LEAN SIX SIGMA MASTER BLACK BELT TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION FOR INDUSTRIAL PARTICIPANTS

Course Description

SigmaPro's highly effective Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt training and certification program is a detailed and informative treatment of the issues involved in developing, deploying and sustaining a successful Lean Six Sigma program.  SigmaPro's extensive experience in Lean Six Sigma deployment and training provides a singularly unique perspective that will assist service and industrial Master Black Belt candidates in deciding how, where, when, and why Lean Six Sigma should be implemented.  Participants will discuss a deployment plan based on organization-specific criteria and the desired financial performance as well as how to allocate resources and manage the Lean Six Sigma effort.  Participants will also gain an in-depth knowledge of the integration of Lean Six Sigma and the DMAIC Breakthrough Strategy -- Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control -- as well as the technical tools to support the Lean Six Sigma – DMAIC integration.  To facilitate learning and increase knowledge retention, this training is delivered in two 5-day training blocks which are typically separated by one month.
