2. What is Lean Six Sigma?
Six Sigma is systematic methodology that utilizes the data and
information gathered from the operations and analyze it using
statistical methods. It helps to improve company's operational
performance and by assisting them to find the area of
improvements.
Few levels of six sigma are follows:
1) Champion
2) Black Belt
3) Green Belt

3. Where is Six Sigma Used?
Six sigma basically is reading your workplace in statistical
method and identifying the area of improvements.
For example:
A manufacturing company can utilize six sigma techniques to
reduce defects, improve quality
Healthcare industry can use it to track patient wait times,
processing etc..
Call center can use to identify average call time, and plan
accordingly

4. Why use Six Sigma?
Six Sigma has following benefits?
• Improved customer experience
• Better control in manufacturing pratice
• Defects reduction
• Identification of areas require improvements
• Black Belt certified can save upto $100,000 annualy
• Green Belt are team members and can generally save upto
$50,000 and work under Black Belt.

5. How Much Six Sigma Training Costs?
Six sigma is not easy to implement. It not only requires control
over statistical tool but also insight of operations.
Companies pay upto $12,000/person to get trained and
transition cost can run into $35,000 +
Many people who recieves this training fail to implement it
properly.
From my personal experience I'll suggest someone who has
desire to learn, change and willingness to do something diff

6. Where do I get Six Sigma Training?
If you are looking for six sigma training then I'll recommend you
to budget carefully and go through your employee skills..
You are capable of doing six sigma practice without any formal
certification if you are good with statistical tools such as
Mean, median, mode, control charts, ANOVA, hyptothesis
testing.. etc..
I'll recommend you to go throught the course offered by
http://www.leansixsigmatraining.org not only because it's
very comprehensive course but support is provided. we liked
it.and hope you will also enjoy it..

7. Who are you?
I am process engineer and very big fan of six sigma practice...
but what I have seen from my experience that companies end
up spending 10,000+ dollars without any ROI on training.
Six Sigma is not very tough it's ideal for anyone who is
willingness to learn and some decent statistical skills. But, 90%
training courses teach you basic statistical skills in big fashion
way 80% of time...
So I recommend you to try out course @
