Six Sigma Green Belt Training

 And Project Support

Beginning January 14, 2008

Meeting Location: TBD

(Based on location of participants)

The Manufacturing Technology Center will be presenting a 12-week course of Six Sigma Green Belt Training and Project Support.  The course will present the SS Green Belt body of knowledge in an application oriented manner.  Six Sigma Green Belt tools will be demonstrated using a project simulation that takes the participant through the D-M-A-I-C process improvement methodology.

The course format was developed around a Train-and-Do approach.  Participants will meet weekly, 8:00am – 12:00pm for the classroom portion of the course.  The meeting day and location will be determined to fit the needs of the participants.  Classroom activities will include a combination of lecture and hands-on simulation exercises. 

Each participant will be required to have a job related and sponsor approved project, which should be selected prior to the start of the class.  MTC instructors will offer weekly, on-site support to mentor and coach the participants through the completion of these company specific projects.
