Get Quotes for Black Belt Six Sigma
Six Sigma is a business management methodology used throughout the world to continuously improve business processes to improve quality and reduce costs using evidence based decision making. A variety of statistical tools, management techniques and modelling methods are available to Six Sigma practitioners. Their familiarity with, and experience of using, these techniques and tools is reflected in their status as Yellow, Green or Black Belts.
Black Belt Six Sigma status indicates that you are a Six Sigma (or Lean Six Sigma*) project leader – that you are comfortable with using a variety of statistical tools to measure and analyse processes, identify problems, plan improvements, run simulations or pilot runs of these improvements and then implement process control systems to maintain consistent outcomes. It also indicates that you have successfully implemented such projects before and that you can manage a Six Sigma project team effectively.
Black Belt Six Sigma Training Options
There are many Six Sigma training companies in the UK that offer training to Black Belt level. Both open, public courses are available for individuals or company employees and tailored,in-house solutions for training a group of candidates in-company.
Certification is provided by most training companies and accredited by widely recognised professional quality improvement organisations like BSI Group or the British Quality Foundation. Black Belt certification normally involves a four hour open book exam and evidence of having successfully managed two Six Sigma projects.
A candidate for Black Belt Six Sigma does not have to have completed Yellow or Green Belt training previously but it is recommended. Trying to learn the content of all the courses in one go is a tall order. Courses last from 2 to 4 weeks but due to the project work evidence requirement, full certification can take much longer.
Online Six Sigma Black Belt training is available but does not provide the practical team based exercises and personal attention that most deem necessary for complete assimilation of Six Sigma techniques. Online certification though can be a convenient solution for large organisations implementing their own in-house Six Sigma training programmes.
*Lean Six Sigma is a synthesis of Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing methodologies. Lean Manufacturing is manufacturing process which aims to eliminate waste and improve process flow. Lean Six Sigma is therefore obviously more relevant to companies and managers in primary and secondary industry.
