Shannon Barrett was a highly knowledgeable instructor of both 6 sigma and lean. The practical experiences "stories" that were shared with the class were very valuable. Top items from the course: Instructors knowledge and enthusiasm (passion) for the subject.
The way the instructor presented the material. Very clear and concise.
1) The study material was detailed and provides an accurate roadmap to encounter issues/defects in the workplace. 2) Shannon was a great instructor and I would strongly recommend my colleagues to enroll for this course. 3) Exercises during the course were helpful too in understanding the application of Minitab tools.
the instructor was great... experiences shared highlighted deep industry experience. soemone from a university background only would not have the knowledge or ability to speak with passion regarding the areas to watch. the material is very applicable to all aspects of life - will be especially helpful in the work place.
The depth of the material and Minitab application were excellent, as was the pace and energy of the facilitator.
The books and the templates. The step by step roadmap. The knowledge of the instructors and answering questions.
Good exercises to illustrate the DMAIC tools & techniques. Would like to do more.
The exercises were really good in learning how to apply the concepts taught in each lesson.
Greg is very knowledgeable. The resources provided. The food and snacks.
Marc managed to inform of us the material and give us the theoretical of how to use the tools. Then use that to explain how each person would practically use it in their respective field. This information was delivered quickly and simply so everyone really understood how to use it. This also allowed for the students to stay engaged. Really good teaching technique.
At this point in the course, I was able to make connections from week one that was so beneficial to the knowledge I learned and actually had it stick. Working on experiments like the flight simulator was nice and hands on and helped me get practice with hypothesis testing and analyzing that data based on what we learned the beginning of week two.
Understand the different between lean management and six signs projects. As well as just learning more about six sigma in general. It was my first time actually digging deep into understanding processes and I feel through this course I'll have a better knowledge to helping companies improve.
The instructor did a very good job presenting the information. The material was thorough and easy to follow. I liked how each piece was tied to the different phases of the DMAIC. I also liked that for the tools we were shown the how, why, and when they should be used.
Donna Whitaker presented the material very clearly and made sure to explain things in laymen's terms if I wasn't able to understand it at first. I also loved the fact that she is so personable and often added humor throughout the week. I have been to several class/seminar presentations and she is definitely one of the very best.
The instructor's ability to convey information in a way that was easily understandable, and his knowledge on the matter.
