Texas Manufacturing Assistance Center (TMAC) College of Engineering and Computer Science

Six Sigma, Green and Black Belt

The course is taught in three five-day weeks (2 five-day weeks for Green Belt), separated by at least one month. Participants must gain management sponsorship and complete course assignments at their place of business during the break.
The assignment will require increasing knowledge of key business issues resulting in better, faster, lower cost products and services. Required resources (including reference texts and software) are included. Successful completion of classroom training and implementation of project will lead to a Six Sigma Green or Black Belt Certification.

This powerful program will provide participants with the necessary tools to make data driven decisions by using applied statistics. Over 35 tools are taught to allow students to gain process knowledge to make their processes Better, Faster, Lower Cost, and Safer. They will deploy these tools through a project using the Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control (DMAIC) roadmap. The Six Sigma tools strive to reduce process variance, measure the process, and find optimal settings in a pursuit of perfection.

Includes meals, training material, software, and certification upon successful completion and approval of project implementation
