Six Sigma Black Belt Add On
Online Training - English
The Six Sigma Black Belt is the project leader of complex Six Sigma improvement projects. He is responsible for the success of the improvement projects he leads. Particularly in Black Belt projects, cross-divisional teams have to be targeted led, which increases the profile requirements of the candidates accordingly. Here are not only sound technical knowledge (he has to train Green Belts for example), but also high social competence is necessary. After all, these are often change processes that have to be borne and accepted by everyone involved. On the other hand, the Six Sigma Black Belt takes the role of a motivator, which ensures the distribution of Six Sigma in the organization. Six Sigma Black Belt training qualifies you to independently and successfully implement Six Sigma projects using proven tools and methods. We provide you with in-depth knowledge of common practices to help you improve your organization’s competitiveness. The course covers topics meeting the ASQ (American Society for Quality) requirements.

Training overview
Benefit:
After the participation in the training you…
- you have a thorough understanding of the Six Sigma approach and you are aware of the prerequisites for a successful implementation of the Six Sigma methodology
- you gain a specific practical knowledge by directly applying the knowledge in a separate improvement project (parallel to the training)
- you are able to successfully implement Six Sigma Black Belt projects
- you master standardized project management tools to successfully manage project teams and complete improvement projects
- you can use tools of modern data analysis and apply them in operational situations and problems
Certification:
„Six Sigma Black Belt“ Certificate
See certification requirements.
Training content:
The Six Sigma methods are played through an end-to-end case study and deepened in workshops. Here, the DMAIC phases are run through again. The already well-known Green Belt training contents are supplemented and deepened in particular by the following main topics:
- Systematic project selection, identification and prioritization, interface Lean / Six Sigma
- Development of a causal chain within the company processes and key figures
- Complete roadmap to MSA, continuous and discrete features, analysis of linearity and bias, resolution and measurement capability, attributive MSA, analytical attributive MSA, signal detection, etc.
- Process capability analysis and non-symmetric distributions, identification of binomial, Poisson distribution (ability calculation for discrete features), yield studies on process chains and systems, development of a complete process capability roadmap and performance of process chains
- Statistical tests – building a complete roadmap including nonparametric tests
- Sampling theory – review and add on (interaction of sample size, power and risks), sampling according to ISO 2859, importance in practice, basics of hypergeometric distribution, roadmap for determining of a suitable sampling strategy
- FMEA and interfaces between production characteristics, sampling tests and capabilities
- Complete roadmap to the ANOVA and statistical background
- Regression analysis, complete roadmap for linear and nonlinear models, handling of multicollinearity problems, binary coding, selection of best subsets, examination of models
- Logistic regression analysis
- Full Roadmap to DoE, screening experiments, full factorial and fractional factorial designs, resolution, alias structure
- Graphical and statistical analysis of factorial designs, response optimization, desirability functions, response surface designs, CCD, box behaviors, D-optimal designs, orthogonality, and rotation
- Set up and use of process algorithms from DoE (transfer functions) for process simulation
- Systematic approach in Improve, Axiomatic Design
- Overview of SPC and control charts, consolidation of statistics for design and evaluation
- Relationship between warning, intervention and specification limits, statistical background, development of control plans, control charts for discrete features
- Interface of Six Sigma to the management control and reporting system of a company, drill down objectives, process responsibility, control charts in the organization (non-technical areas)
- Six Sigma Deployment – alignment with the company goals, interface to the personnel development
Certification conditions:
The participant obtains the „Six Sigma Black Belt” certificate, when the following conditions are met:
- Participation in all training blocks
Passed the written examination during the training - Proven application of the Six Sigma methods in a separate improvement project to the qualification period
- Confirmation of project completion
- Registration for Certification Day in written form
- Final report / presentation with proof of project success and definite potential savings, presented by the participant on the certification day within 18 months after having finished the training
For further details please refer to our certification guidelines, which are handed out at the beginning of each training.
Certification options:
Single Certification:
If you wish a single certification separately, we are pleased to organize a single certification online for you. For this form of certification, additional costs of € 250,- plus legal VAT per participant will be charged.
Alternative Option:
If execution of a certification project and final reporting at the Certification Day within 18 months is not possible, you can extend the certification time frame up to 24 months and register for one of the Certification Days or choose a single certification (online). In this case additional costs of € 250,- plus legal VAT will be charged.
Group of participants:
Employees and managers of production and service companies of private and public organizations
Prerequisites:
There are no prior requirements for the participation on this training.
Requirements:
The participant is obligated to implement a Six Sigma improvement project on his own for the certification. However, the participation is also possible without the implementation of a training-accompanying improvement project. In this case the certification can then be carried out as a follow-up (see alternative regulation under certification testing). For the selection of a suitable project, our trainer will always be available in advance or within the framework of the first training block
MINITAB:
Each participant must have a notebook with Microsoft® Excel 2003 or above and the latest MINITAB® software version installed. The MINITAB® software can be downloaded as free demo or buy. MINITAB® can be purchased in various license options.
Contact us for more information.
