I found the Six Sigma course extremely interesting and appropriate for our times, as US companies in many industries strive to regain a competitive edge in the global economy of this century. The format and the general layout of the topics was very well designed and easy to follow. The tools introduced in this course were extremely powerful and the know-how about how to identify, assess and manage opportunities for improvement was invaluable.

The convenience of being able to view the sessions on-line, along with the availability of the instructor to answer any questions, made the entire learning experience more effective for someone like myself with a tight schedule in today's fast paced world. I would recommend this course to anyone involved in management, decision making and problem solving who wants to take their company to the next level by implementing an ongoing business performance improvement strategy throughout their organization.

After reviewing several online courses, I finally told myself to make a decision based on the information I had.  I could have easily spent another 6 months reviewing my many options, but I really wanted to get started on a course this summer while I had a little more free time.  Your course definitely stood out among the others - especially in the area of personal mentoring which is very important to me.

My education includes a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering.  Even though I have over 10 years experience, I have not been a practicing engineer for the past 14 years (have been teaching).  I would like to get back into engineering and thought the black belt training would be very beneficial.  My goal is to become certified.

The optional slide guide will definitely be a bonus and time saver.  Taking notes with the guides saved 40% of the time required to view today's session!  

I appreciated your suggestion on nonprofits as an option for a project.  That opens up a lot of opportunities I never considered.  There are a few local organizations that we support - would love to consider offering my time to benefit their causes.

Inadequate infrastructure

The Stupid Six Sigma Tricks countdown continues this month with an increasingly common error: “Inadequate Infrastructure.” By infrastructure, I mean those systems and processes that need to be in place in order to support the objectives of Six Sigma.

Regardless of how you define Six Sigma, we expect to see Black Belts working as problem-solving experts attempting to make big improvements. The Black Belts get all the glory but, as is usually the case, the success of the few in the limelight is due to the efforts of many others.
