Description

  • The Define phase during which projects are selected and wasteful elements are identified and action items are defined.
  • The Measure phase is used to catalogue and analyse existing processes to define an operational baseline that can be used to calculate potential capability of each.
  • The Analyse phase uses statistical analysis and hypothesis testing to model how processes may be improved and the potential value of each.
  • The Improve phase helps students to identify the changes that will deliver the greatest business benefits before putting those plans into action.
  • The Control phase then helps to monitor each change that is made and record any deviations from the predicted benefits, then how to action on the results.

Lean Six Sigma Green Belt will lead to roles such in areas such as process improvement, quality assurance and business analysis.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
