About the Course

This course is for you if you are looking to dive deeper into Six Sigma or strengthen and expand your knowledge of the basic components of green belt level of Six Sigma and Lean. Six Sigma skills are widely sought by employers both nationally and internationally. These skills have been proven to help improve business processes and performance. This course will take you deeper into the principles and tools associated with the "Define" and "Measure" phases of the DMAIC structure of Six Sigma. It is highly recommended that you complete the "Yellow Belt Specialization" and the course "Six Sigma and the Organization (Advanced)" before beginning this course. In this course, your instructors will introduce you to, and have you apply, some of the tools and metrics that are critical components of Six Sigma. This course will provide you with the advanced knowledge of team dynamics and performance, process analysis, probability, statistics, statistical distributions, collecting and summarizing data, measurement systems analysis, process and performance capability, and exploratory data analysis associated with Six Sigma and Lean. Every module will include readings, videos, and quizzes to help make sure you understand the material and concepts that are studied. Registration includes online access to course content, projects, and resources but does not include the companion text The Certified Six Sigma Green Belt Handbook (2nd edition). The companion text is NOT required to complete the assignments. However, the text is a recognized handbook used by professionals in the field. Also, it is a highly-recommended text for those wishing to move forward in Six Sigma and eventually gain certification from professional agencies such as American Society for Quality (ASQ)....

Amaizing Course, I am a Business Management Engineering Student, but I'm in an exchange program actually and this course made me remember all the topics I have been studied in my Quality Classes.

Some repetitive courses and confusing sequences of chapter modules.

The course is excellent and helped me to better use excel for statistics.

I think including more practice examples would be better.

Thank you for this course

The materials are quite ok, I think all people make an effort to bring this to a reasonable understanding for all. A few question to take in: a) how to relate to the service industries and non manufacturing world, b) the content in the book is way more dense and "untreated" if the course serves as a preparation for the exam then we can all be in trouble.c) suggestion - have a google excel with the formulas ready to be used since some of the examples can be improved (r and test for r) d)suggestion - explain what things mean in laymen language - since some of the videos do the work ( correlation is a good example, can you do examples of day to day or service or software or stock market, or others where we can find more context from the application of the formulas

Course totally lacks enthousiasm. A lot of repetition from the yellow belt course. No in-depth questions about process capability and statistics calculations. No involvement of teachers in the forums. Some sheets and questions are plain wrong (e.g. on cpk calculation). Some presentations are made with a totally unrelated movie as a background, which greatly distracts from the information. I am disappointed, but will finish the specialization. Anyway it is a good motivation to read the handbook.

Wording of quiz problems was extremely confusing. I knew the material, but got hung up on how the questions were posed.

I found the course is too mechanically taught with slide readings.Needed to focus more on case studies or explaining the significance of formulae

I found this course incredibly helpful in advancing my understanding of the Define and Measure phases in Six Sigma. The content was well-structured and detailed, covering everything from identifying project goals to in-depth measurement techniques. I appreciated the real-world examples and case studies, which made complex concepts much easier to grasp. The course emphasized essential tools like GR&R studies, Control Charts, and Process Capability Studies. This focus on practical application has already made a difference in my day-to-day work, helping me to identify and eliminate process variations with greater confidence. Overall, it’s a must-take for anyone looking to deepen their Six Sigma expertise and effectively apply these principles to real projects. Highly recommended!

Overall a good course. Dr Scherrer and Dr Bailey do a excellent job in explaining some difficult material. There could stand to be more problems to work through for the statistical analysis section in order for us to get more practice.

Amazing course with a detailed explanation. This is kinda must learn for understanding six sigma. One would learn the basic concept (define and measuring tools) of how to apply six sigma in an industry.

Although estatistic and probability are hard to get most of the times, I felt comfortable by doing the classes and reaching the goals. Really nice.

"The Green Belt Specialization is a Great Learning, however it would be good if there is one more course on black belt or master black belt"
