In this course "Certified Lean Six Sigma White Belt" you will learn the foundational concepts and methods of continuous improvement professionals. Lean Six Sigma is the marriage between two different problem solving approaches -- Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing. These approaches have unique histories, tools and emphases, but share the common goal of process improvement.

Six Sigma largely originated from the Japanese automobile industry and focuses on reducing variation, the so called "Enemy of quality". Lean Manufacturing also originated in the automobile industry with major contributions from both Ford and Toyota, and focuses on the reduction of waste and production bottlenecks.

Together, Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing provide a powerful and complementary tool set for today's continuous improvement practitioners. In this class you will learn:

What is Six Sigma?

What is Lean Manufacturing?

How do these two approaches work together?

What are Lean Six Sigma "belts"?

What are the 7 Mudas?

What are the 6M's?

What are the 7 Quality Tools? How do they work?

What are my next steps in Continuous Improvement?

This class "Certified Lean Six Sigma White Belt" will introduce you to these major tools and concepts.
