The Six Sigma Black Belt certificate includes four online courses, delivered via Zoom:
Theory and Application
This course establishes Lean Six Sigma principles to equip students with practical tools for driving organizational performance and innovation. Students learn to diagnose inefficiencies, implement sustainable improvements, and communicate data-driven solutions through hands-on exercises, real-world case studies, and applications of systems thinking, facilitation skills, and AI-enhanced analytics. The course culminates in individual project presentations demonstrating measurable results and applied mastery of the DMAIC framework. Designed for working professionals, SYSEN 5606 emphasizes strategic impact, cross-functional collaboration, and personal leadership development to get real-world results.
Continuous Process Improvement
This advanced module in Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Certification focuses on continuous process improvement through the application of the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) methodology. Participants will engage with tools such as Value Stream Mapping, Statistical Process Control, and Root Cause Analysis, while exploring organizational behavior concepts like emotional labor and psychological contracts. The course blends quantitative and qualitative techniques, including survey design, training needs analysis, and real-world project execution. Designed for professionals seeking impactful, data-driven solutions, this course culminates in individual project presentations and measurable return-on-investment outcomes.
Basic Quality Control
This course equips students with advanced tools and methodologies for achieving process excellence and sustainable organizational performance. Through hands-on training in statistical analysis tools, control charts, FMEA, Design of Experiments, and AI-enhanced quality techniques, students learn to diagnose root causes, reduce variation, and drive measurable results. The course integrates both quantitative and qualitative approaches, including customer journey mapping and ethnographic observation, to align solutions with customer needs and strategic goals. Participants complete individual projects that demonstrate mastery of Lean Six Sigma principles and their application in real-world environments.
Lean Six Sigma Customer Driven
This final course in the Six Sigma Black Belt Program explores how organizations can improve performance by aligning operations with customer expectations and business priorities. Through hands-on analysis of Voice of the Customer, financial impact, compliance frameworks like Sarbanes-Oxley, and practical action planning, students develop skills to identify enterprise gaps and drive measurable improvement. Emphasis is placed on stakeholder influence, emotional labor, and diversity as key elements of customer-centric continuous improvement. The course culminates in an applied practicum where participants present real-world recommendations supported by lessons learned and data-driven insights.
