Description

The Lean Six Sigma Black Belt course offers a comprehensive and practical journey into the advanced principles of Six Sigma. It equips learners with the analytical tools, leadership capabilities, and project management knowledge to drive sustainable performance improvement in any industry.

In Lecture 1, you’ll begin with the fundamentals—exploring the origin, benefits, and key principles of Lean and Six Sigma, as well as the Black Belt’s role in facilitating transformational change.

Lecture 2 introduces the Define phase, teaching you how to clarify project goals, align with customer expectations, and manage stakeholders using robust project charters and scoping tools.

In the Measure phase (Lecture 3), you'll gain expertise in selecting process metrics, mapping workflows, and using data collection techniques central to successful Six Sigma analysis.

Lecture 4 (Analyze phase) focuses on identifying root causes of inefficiencies using statistical techniques like hypothesis testing, FMEA, and control charting. You'll develop strong data interpretation and problem-solving capabilities that are essential in Six Sigma projects.

Lecture 5 guides you through the Improve phase, covering how to test, implement, and manage changes through Lean tools, experimentation, and structured rollout strategies.

The Control phase, covered in Lecture 6, helps you maintain improvements through poka-yoke (mistake-proofing), process control plans, and project handover strategies that ensure lasting success.

Lecture 7 explores leadership and change management, empowering you to build performance-driven teams, lead organisational change, and influence key stakeholders across departments.

In Lecture 8, you'll investigate advanced applications of Six Sigma, including DFSS (Design for Six Sigma), service-sector implementations, and innovations in supply chain optimisation.

Finally, Lecture 9 offers practical, real-world insight with case studies and a hands-on project that brings together everything you’ve learned. You'll apply Six Sigma tools and methodologies to solve genuine process challenges and present your solutions with confidence.
