Your improvement project
- Between the two practical phases, you will implement a qualifying Green Belt improvement project in the company. In this way, you will apply the methods you have learned in a targeted manner in practice and develop a measurable benefit for your own company.
- You define the project roughly before the start of the course and present it briefly at the beginning of the first module. You will discuss and concretize the project together with the lecturers.
- After the first module, you will start working on the project in your company for about 3 months, which is oriented to the first three phases of the DMAIC cycle. In the process, the Six Sigma tools learned are systematically applied.
- In the second module, the previous project results are presented and the next phases of the DMAIC cycle are dealt with.
- After completion of the Six Sigma Green Belt Hybrid certificate course, the improvement project can be completed autonomously in one's own company.
