The training is organized around the five main phases of the Six Sigma Process Improvement Roadmap: Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control (DMAIC). Candidates participate in four training sessions, with at least three weeks in between, allowing them to apply the material learned to their project.
For project-based training, project reviews during each training session maintain project focus. In this case, it is the responsibility of the Champion to ensure that their Belt candidates arrive at class with a proper project charter.
Optional: In between training, QSG can provide coaching and guidance to ensure that the methodology and roadmap are used appropriately. This is a separate service provided apart from this 160-hour training program.
This course is designed for process, product, and quality engineers who will lead project teams to achieve quality, yield, and productivity improvements. The Black Belts will normally lead complex production process related problems which may transcend across several processes and/or departments within an organization.

Quality Support Group provides world class training in many useful topics. Their trainers, specifically Don and Dave, are very knowledgeable and genuinely there to help you learn and understand. I took their Green Belt training and certification, and highly recommend it. They have excellent training material, software tools, and activities. They are teaching from many years of experience and have so much technical and industry knowledge that makes it easier to relate to, understand, and apply the concepts. From this experience, I will definitely be looking to get more training from them to improve my skills. I highly recommend reaching out to QSG for your training needs and more. My company, Hexagon, has trusted them for years, having them continually train our employees in regulatory standards, problem solving 8D, continuous improvement, etc
