ATN Lean Six Sigma Green Belt

Course Description

ATN’s Lean Six Sigma Green Belt class provides comprehensive training on the principles and methodologies of Lean Six Sigma, focusing on the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) methodology. Participants learn to reduce variation, identify process inefficiencies, eliminate waste, and implement improvements to enhance quality and performance. The course includes hands-on simulations to ensure practical understanding and application. This course not only deepens participants’ understanding and application of Lean Sigma tools but also illustrates how these tools can yield breakthrough improvements in processes, directly impacting the bottom line. By the end of the class, attendees are equipped with the skills to lead small to medium-sized process improvement projects within their organizations.
