| 1. What is Six Sigma? |
Six Sigma is a data driven, customer focused and result oriented methodology which uses statistical tools and techniques to systematically eliminate the defects and inefficiency to improve processes. |
| 2. What does the term "Six Sigma" signify? |
Sigma, represented by the Greek alphabet ‘σ’, stands for standard deviation from the ‘mean’.
‘Six Sigma’ represents six standard deviations from the ‘mean.’ This implies that if a company produces 1,000,000 units, and its processes are at Six Sigma level, then less than 3.4 defects only will result. |
| 3. What is six sigma approach? |
Six Sigma approach is to find out the root cause of the problem which can be symbolically expressed as Y = F(X). Y represents the problem that occurs due to cause (s) X. |
| 4. Where Six Sigma can be applied ? (eg. specific industries) |
Six Sigma can be applied in any industry, e.g. manufacturing, service, healthcare, etc. |
| 5. How Six Sigma Green Belt Certification is different from SIx Sigma Black Belt Certification? |
Six Sigma Green Belt course covers most of the common tools and techniques used in Six Sigma. Black Belt course provides competence in advanced statistical tools and techniques that are used in major and complex projects. |
| 6. Is talking about six sigma only a fashion? |
Six Sigma is now a widely accepted quality concept in the corporate world. Six Sigma was introduced in USA in the 1980s as a statistics-based method to reduce variation in electronic manufacturing processes at Motorola Inc. Today, twenty and odd years on, Six Sigma is being used as an all-encompassing business performance improvement methodology across the globe. |
| 7. Is it necessary to do a project on Six Sigma Green Belt/ Black Belt Certification? |
No, it is not necessary to do a project for the Six Sigma certification. But we recommend that you take up projects and apply Six Sigma principles to gain practical knowledge.
Optional project – There is no project requirement for Green Belt. For Black Belt, you can, optionally, work on any project while studying for the course. The project report should be submitted within 6 months of completing the course. |
| 8. Why should I choose IIBM Six Sigma for my Six Sigma Certification? |
- Comprehensive study guides for all phases of the course with illustrative examples.
- Probing chapter tests to test the understanding of the concept of the particular chapter.
- Self Evaluation tests for all the chapters. They help you to understand the concepts better.
- Aligned with concepts taught by ASQ (American Society for Quality). IIBM Six Sigma courses are a great way to prepare for ASQ Six Sigma Black Belt and other advanced quality certifications.
