What Should Be in a Six Sigma Green Belt Curriculum?

Green Belts hold a unique position in Six Sigma, taking on responsibilities of belts above and below them. However, Green Belt training has also been the source of much debate. Our Six Sigma Green Belt curriculum takes place over two weeks of intensive study, but just what should you cover in Six Sigma Green Belt curricula? Furthermore, in Green Belt training, what information and skills should be taught? Today, we answer these questions. Let’s find out.

 

Green Belt Training: Week 1

 

  • Six Sigma Introduction: Week 1 begins with an intro to Six Sigma theory and methodology. Project-based work and theory-based study will also take place.

 

  • Six Sigma Project Definition: How to recognize and define a great project. We also find that the most successful practitioners in training, achieve more in the real world.

 

  • Project Selection Process: Learning how to select the right project will lead towards success and also teach you which projects to avoid.

 

  • Six Sigma Deployment: How to use Six Sigma to make effective process changes.

 

  • Process Mapping: Process mapping is a powerful tool for understanding production processes.

 

  • Input Prioritization Tools: Learning to prioritize inputs is essential to Six Sigma.

 

  • Failure Mode Effect Analysis: FMEA is one of Six Sigma’s systematic techniques for analyzing causes/effects of project and process failure.

 

  • Minitab software Introduction: Software like Minitab software is incredibly useful to Green Belts.
  • Measurement Systems: A run-through on measurement systems and analysis techniques.

 

  • Capability Analysis: A crash course on analyzing and calculating capability based on given data.

 

  • Sample Size Selection: Sample size, especially in Six Sigma experiments, should be selected accordingly. However, the key to selecting the ideal sample size comes from looking at your data.

 

  • Statistical Process Control: Everything SPC and how it applies to Six Sigma.

 

  • Process Control Plan: If you don’t plan, then how can you expect to control processes?

 

  • Integration of Lean: Did you know that Lean can be integrated with Six Sigma? It can make for improved results.

 

  • Project Plan & Deliverable: Planning is everything, but must be in line with agreed deliverables.

 

  • Project Reviews: Learning to review projects will teach objectivity.

 

Green Belt Training: Week 2

 

  • Week 1 Review In-Class Project: Week 2 Begins with an in-class practical/theory project based on week 1’s study.

 

  • Advanced Graphical Analysis: Once you know how to use AGA to detect trends, then you can identify process issues in production.

 

  • Multi-Vari Planning and Analysis: Multi-vari planning/analysis allows you to highlight variation and core process features.

 

  • Variation Trees and Funneling: How to use variation trees and funneling to chart how problems like defect arise.

 

  • Hypothesis Testing: Here we teach you how to perfect and test sound hypotheses. Additionally, we find that a combination of practical and written work is most helpful.

 

  • Central Limit Theorem: CLT allows you to identify similarities between means in large samples.

 

  • Statistical Analysis Roadmap: A crash course in statistical analysis. Using SAR, you can make the most of data and deliver great results.

 

  • One Way ANOVA: Analysis of Variance aids Green Belts to identify statistically significant differences.

 

  • Non-manufacturing Applications: Six Sigma is useful for software development, call centers, and more!

 

  • Correlation and Regression: We teach the differences and similarities between correlation and regression.

 

  • Process Control Plan: PCPs help Green Belts learn how to control product characteristics.

 

  • Project Plan & Deliverable: Planning is everything, but it must be in line with agreed deliverables.

 

  • Project Reviews: Learning to review projects will teach objectivity.

 

  • Test for Mean with t-test: Understanding how to use Mean is important, and this t-test will assess what you’ve learned.

Exclusive Benefits of Our Six Sigma Green Belt Training

 

  • Green Belt students benefit from our Master Black Belt instructors whose extensive knowledge and experience enable them to offer support and project consultation. We also offer project review and certification.

 

  • Furthermore, 6Sigma.us provides invaluable data files and templates you can use for future certification and professional projects. We also provide samples of basic projects and generic Project Charters, and up to 3 hours of remote support. (For up to 6 months after training or project completion.)

 

  • Additionally, on-site Consulting services are available at a special rate for our Green Belt students. These services are also available for other Belt levels.

 

  • Moreover, as an IACETand PMI®* accredited provider, there are CEUs and PDUs available for each Belt level, including Green Belt.

 

  • Our aim is to include more Green Belt-appropriate Lean tools and techniques as time passes. That way, you’ll get the best of both worlds!

SixSigma.com offers both Live Virtual classes as well as Online Self-Paced training. Most option includes access to the same great Master Black Belt instructors that teach our World Class in-person sessions. Sign-up today!
