Six Sigma
Define and Measure
Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Certification,
In this first course of the Six Sigma Program, you will understand the background and meaning of Six Sigma and the five steps of the DMAIC process improvement flow: Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control. Discuss what "Quality" means and how to identify the Voice of the Customer.
You will learn how to set an improvement project goal, calculate process yield, and identify Critical-to-Quality parameters.
You will learn how to map a process and to use the necessary statistical techniques to establish the baseline performance of a process and to calculate the process capability.
To complement the lectures, we provide interactive exercises, which allow learners to see the statistics "in action." Learners then master the statistical concepts by completing practice problems. These are then reinforced using interactive case studies, which illustrate the application of the statistics in quality improvement situations.
Upon successful completion of this program, learners will earn the TUM Lean and Six Sigma Yellow Belt certification, confirming mastery of Lean Six Sigma fundamentals to a Green Belt level. The material is based on the American Society for Quality (www.asq.org) Body of Knowledge up to a Green Belt Level. The Professional Certificate is designed as preparation for a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt exam.
What you'll learn
- To understand the background and meaning of the Six Sigma methodology and the role of the DMAIC process improvement cycle.
- To identify the Voice of the Customer and translate into Critical-to-Quality parameters.
- To understand the concept of random variables, probability mass functions, and probability density functions.
- To calculate probabilities using the Normal distribution.
- To understand how the Central Limit Theorem applies to sampling and how to set up sampling plans.
- To understand the importance of a Measurement System Analysis in a Six Sigma project.
- To calculate Process Yield and Process Capability.
- To perform a risk assessment using a Failure Modes and Effects Analysis.
- How to apply the Define and Measure phases of the DMAIC cycle in your work or research, in order to identify problems and quantitatively assess the impact of process changes using statistical analysis.

What people are saying
six sigma
A must do course for anyone who wants to learn/understand the basics of Six Sigma to perfection.
This is without doubt, one of the best course about six sigma, no just in EDX website,but in our quality world.
all the three courses combined yield a lot of know how about SIX SIGMA.
The course really helps to gain insight into the lean production and six sigma.
Congratulations on TUM team for this course and the whole Six Sigma Professional Series.
This is perhaps the most demanding course in the Six Sigma Yellow Belt Certification, but like the others - it's greatly designed and with some work can be successfully mastered.
We all know that manufacturing and construction are on opposite side of the table but incorporating the success of six sigma and lean in manufacturing will greatly contribute on the improvement not only with the quality but also in the iron triangle (cost, scope and time).

three courses
I'm aiming for the university's TUM Yellow belt available when obtaining required score (70% I believe) on all three courses in the series (~$270.)
The new knowledge I gained from the three courses are awesome.
course instructor
Holly, the course instructor is an excellent teacher.
And the most important, the course instructor Holly possess very nice attitude, she isn't not like those boring professors.
