Lean Six Sigma Green Belt - 3. Analyze, Improve & Control

What You Will Learn

Green Belts are professionals well versed in the Lean and Six Sigma methodologies, and understand the application of process improvements that eliminate non-value-added steps, reduce lead time and begin to reduce process variations. They collect data, make initial interpretations and begin to formulate recommendations that are fed to Black Belts or the sponsoring managers.

This updated program is divided into 3 modules:
1. Introduction & Define Phase
2. Measure Phase
3. Analyze, Improve and Control Phases

In this module, you will learn how to analyze the data collected from the Lean Six Sigma process to look for root causes, as well as quantify the gap between "current state" and the "desired state." Additionally, you will learn how to search for improvement opportunities in the process. In the Improve Phase, you will learn how to generate and test possible solutions, select the best solutions, and design implementation tests. The Control Phase focuses on documenting and implementing the tools identified in the Implementation plan, including the monitoring plan, creating and updating standardized processes, documenting procedures, creating and deploying response plans, and transferring ownership of the updated process.

The second module in the series is a prerequisite for the Analyze, Improve and Control module, which should be taken in sequence.

This course is approved by SHRM for 15 hours.
