Description of Six Sigma as a concept
The Six Sigma concept was created in the early 1980s and has since been used to effectively and sustainably eliminate serious disruptions in operations. The concept, which was initially focused on the manufacturing industry, is now widespread within various industries. Six Sigma is a results-oriented concept with a clear structure, defined roles, and knowledge levels. The work within Six Sigma is conducted in project form and with clear leadership. In Six Sigma projects, the popular DMAIC model is used and in this training, we build up a detailed insight into all phases of the model.
The course, which is an updated version of two previous separate courses, gives the course participant good knowledge of the methodology and creates the right conditions for continued work in the field.
For whom is the course suitable?
The course provides a basic understanding of how the work with Six-Sigma is introduced and conducted in a business. These basic blocks make the course suitable at all levels of the company. The concept as a whole is also based on the organization's commitment to improvement work and education such as this provides the conditions for creating consensus within the company.
If you want to develop in the area and work as an improvement leader, like a Yellow-Belt or Green-Belt, the basic knowledge is necessary.
