This internship is for you if you are interested in learning more about the more advanced components of Six Sigma and Lean. Six Sigma skills are in high demand by employers both in Israel and internationally. These skills have been proven to improve work processes, performance, and quality assurance.
In this specialization, you will learn proven principles and tools related to Six Sigma and Lean.
This is a sequential and structured specialization that offers more advanced content (“green belt” level) of Six Sigma and Lean. Yellow Belt knowledge is required before advancing to Green Belt (which is the second specialization offered here on Coursera by USG). Green Belt knowledge is required before moving to Black Belt.
At the end of Course #4 (Six Sigma Advanced Improvement and Control Phase), there is a peer-reviewed final project. Successful completion of this project is required for full completion of this specialization.
It is important to note that completing a Yellow Belt or Green Belt specialization does not grant the learner a “professional certification” in Six Sigma, but it may help in better preparation for such professional certification exams.
Upon completion of this internship, learners will produce:
All of these will be created using the Six Sigma principles and tools they learned.
This course is for you if you are interested in deepening your knowledge of Six Sigma or strengthening and expanding your basic knowledge at the Green Belt level in Six Sigma and Lean. Six Sigma skills are highly sought after by employers in Israel and around the world. These skills have proven themselves in improving work processes and business performance. This course will introduce you to the purpose of Six Sigma and its value to the organization. You will learn about the basic principles of Six Sigma and Lean. Your instructors will introduce you to and use the important tools and metrics of Six Sigma. The course will provide you with the basic knowledge of the principles, roles and responsibilities of Six Sigma and Lean. Each module will include readings, videos and quizzes to ensure that you understand the material and the terms being taught. You will also be able to participate in discussions and peer review exercises to apply the material to your daily life.
Registration includes online access to course content, projects, and resources but does not include the companion book, “The Certified Green Belt Guide to Six Sigma” (Second Edition). The companion book is not required to complete the assignments. However, it is a recognized guide for professionals in the field. It is also a highly recommended text for those interested in advancing in Six Sigma and ultimately achieving certification from professional bodies such as the American Society for Quality (ASQ).
This course is for you if you want to deepen your knowledge of Six Sigma or expand the basic knowledge of the Green Belt level in Six Sigma and Lean. Six Sigma skills are highly sought after by employers in Israel and around the world and have proven themselves in achieving improvements in business processes and performance. The course will take you deep into the principles and tools related to the definition and measurement phases of the DMAIC structure of Six Sigma.
