Description: In the Improve stage of the Six Sigma DMAIC process, you will use the Lean and Lean Six Sigma tool set to find ideas to help facilitate business process improvement. That will help you resolve process problems that you've identified in an earlier stage. And this in turn will help drive process improvement, process control, and process design.
In this course, you'll learn about the key tools, such as cycle-time reduction, continuous flow, setup reduction, kaizen, kaizen blitz, and other Lean tools, that lead to continuous improvement. The course is aligned with ASQ’s 2015 Six Sigma Green Belt Body of Knowledge.
Target Audience: Candidates seeking Six Sigma Green Belt certification; quality professionals, engineers, production managers, and frontline supervisors; process owners and champions charged with the responsibility of improving quality and processes at the organizational or departmental level
Duration: 00:50
Description: Getting to the source of why something has gone wrong is critical to identifying the changes necessary for business process improvement. During the Improve phase in a Lean or Lean Six Sigma project, you can use statistical methods and non-statistical methods to analyze systems and processes, looking for ways to drive process improvement, process design, and process control.
In this course, you'll learn about the key concepts and tools used in Six Sigma to identify what's causing variations and defects. And you’ll look at root cause analysis and tools used to prevent and eliminate waste in your processes. The course is aligned with ASQ’s 2015 Six Sigma Green Belt Body of Knowledge.
Target Audience: Candidates seeking Six Sigma Green Belt certification; quality professionals, engineers, production managers, and frontline supervisors; process owners and champions charged with the responsibility of improving quality and processes at the organizational or departmental level

Description: In the Improve stage of Lean or Lean Six Sigma DMAIC, teams design and conduct experiments to investigate the relationships between input variables and response variables. By controlling and changing the input variables, and observing the effects on the response variables., the Six Sigma team gains a deeper understanding of the relationships and begins business process improvement.
In this course, you'll explore the Design of Experiments (DOE) methodology. You’ll learn how to interpret the results of the main effect analysis and interaction plots, and use this to drive process improvement, process control, and process design. This course is aligned with ASQ’s 2015 Six Sigma Green Belt Body of Knowledge.
