Course Summary

Six Sigma is the comprehensive business improvement strategy made famous by organisations such as Motorola, General Electric, Honeywell and others, which has been used to generate significant improvements in business performance.

Lean, which is derived from the principles of the Toyota Production System focuses on waste reduction, maximisation of value and building a culture in which continuous improvement and excellence becomes everyone's responsibility. Combining Lean and Six Sigma provides a powerful methodology for embedding improvement and excellence into any organisation's core values.

Lean Six Sigma is increasingly being adopted world wide in all industries and in both the public and private sectors.

It is a disciplined process focused on delivering near perfect products and services. It is based on a structured methodology for continuous improvement, and can be used to improve any process in any business.

This GLOMACS Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Program introduces participants to all of the core concepts underpinning the Lean Six Sigma approach to excellence to the Green Belt level.

In Lean Six Sigma organisations, it is the Green Belts who lead and contribute to the majority of improvement teams undertaking the improvement projects that will make continuous improvement through Lean Six Sigma a key element of achieving and maintaining operational excellence.

This GLOMACS training program will be provided participants with the level of knowledge and skill required to achieve accreditation at the Green Belt level.

This GLOMACS Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Program is a full Green Belt program and assumes no prior knowledge or qualification in Lean Six Sigma. The Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt body-of-knowledge which is usually regarded as a pre-requisite for attendance at Green Belt level is included as part of this complete end-to-end Green Belt program.

In some cases, teams have been able to implement their recommendation and see results before the project report was due. If this is the case, feel free to include information about the after situation. (Even if your recommendations didn’t work!)

Day 45

The improvement / problem solving project report should not be more than 2,500 word in length, excluding appendices.
