To carry out an effective process improvement initiative within your organization, you'll likely need to use different Lean Six Sigma tools to help you research the process design and implement a robust process control system. This course covers how Lean can be used in a Six Sigma project to improve process performance. It also introduces a few common Lean tools and techniques that can help you when carrying out business process improvement, such as the theory of constraints and value stream mapping. This course is aligned with ASQ's 2015 Six Sigma Green Belt Body of Knowledge.
