Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Certification Program: In-House Training This course is specifically for people wanting to become Lean Six Sigma Black Belts, who are already Lean Six Sigma practitioners. If advanced statistical analysis is needed to identify root causes and optimal process improvements, (Lean) Six Sigma Green Belts typically ask Black Belts or Master Black Belts to conduct these analyses. This course will change that. Green Belts wanting to advance their statistical abilities will have a considerable amount of hands-on practice in techniques such as Statistical Process Control, MSA, Hypothesis Testing, Correlation and Regression, Design of Experiments, and many others. Participants will also work throughout the course on a real-world improvement project from their own business environment. This provides participants with hands-on learning and provides the organization with an immediate ROI once the project is completed. IIL instructors will provide free project coaching throughout the course. What you Will Learn At the end of this program, you will be able to: Use Minitab for advanced data analysis Develop appropriate sampling strategies Analyze differences between samples using Hypothesis Tests Apply Statistical Process Control to differentiate common cause and special cause variation Explain and apply various process capability metrics Conduct Measurement System Analysis and Gage R&R studies for both discrete and continuous data Conduct and analyze simple and multiple regression analysis Plan, execute, and analyze designed experiments Drive sustainable change efforts through leadership, change management, and stakeholder management Successfully incorporate advanced analysis techniques while moving projects through the DMAIC steps Explain the main concepts of Design for Six Sigma including QFD Introduction: DMAIC Review IIL Black Belt Certification Requirements Review Project Selection Review Define Review Measure Review Analyze Review Improve Review Control Introduction: Minitab Tool Introduction to Minitab Minitab basic statistics and graphs Special features Overview of Minitab menus Introduction: Sampling The Central Limit Theorem Confidence Interval of the mean Sample size for continuous data (mean) Confidence Interval for proportions Sample size for discrete data (proportions) Sampling strategies (review) Appendix: CI and sample size for confidence levels other than 95% Hypothesis Testing: Introduction Why use advanced stat tools?
