Description

Lean Six Sigma (LSS) is a well-known approach for achieving operational excellence that does more than simply improve processes. LSS combines the process improvement benefits of Lean with the statistical process control (SPC) benefits of Six Sigma. It takes advantage of the “value-added” focus of Lean while maintaining the statistical rigors of Six Sigma. The course series includes four full-day training sessions with two weeks between sessions for participants to complete project work that is an essential part of the LSSGB program. Sessions will include all training materials, project support, venue, and food.
