This course is a refresher study of the ASQ Certified Six Sigma Green Belt Body of Knowledge.

Topics include business process management, quality management techniques, project management, DMAIC methodology, statistical applications and methods, design of experiments, lean enterprise principles, and Design for Six Sigma.
