In many organizations, improvement efforts struggle for one simple reason: teams jump to solutions before understanding the data.
This 5-Day Lean Six Sigma Green Belt program is designed to change that.
Delivered in person by Sandeep Kumar, founder of Quality Gurus Inc., this intensive workshop helps professionals learn how to reduce variation, improve yield, solve recurring problems, and make better operational decisions using Lean Six Sigma and Minitab.
Unlike theory-heavy certification programs, this course focuses on practical application in manufacturing and operations environments.
Why This Program Is Different
Many Green Belt courses spend too much time on:
- formulas
- hand calculations
- textbook examples
- certification memorization
This program focuses on:
- real operational problems
- manufacturing examples
- practical statistical thinking
- process variation
- capability analysis
- data-driven decision making
Participants learn how to:
- identify root causes
- interpret Minitab output
- understand process behavior
- reduce process variation
- sustain improvements on the shop floor
The course uses examples related to:
- welding
- assembly
- dimensional variation
- yield loss
- process capability
- production drift
- operator and shift variation
What Participants Will Learn
Over five intensive days, participants move through the DMAIC framework:
Define
Learn how to clearly define problems, identify CTQs, and build meaningful project scopes.
Measure
Understand:
- variation
- data collection
- measurement systems
- Gauge R&R
- baseline performance
Participants also learn how to use Minitab for:
- descriptive statistics
- histograms
- boxplots
- normality testing
Analyze
Learn how to identify the real drivers behind process variation using:
- hypothesis testing
- regression
- ANOVA
- graphical analysis
- root cause analysis
Participants learn when to use:
- t-tests
- control charts
- capability studies
- scatterplots
- Pareto analysis
Improve
Move from analysis into implementation using:
- solution selection
- mistake-proofing
- pilot validation
- corrective actions
- process optimization
Control
Learn how to sustain gains using:
- SPC
- reaction plans
- control plans
- visual management
- escalation logic
- layered process audits
Hands-On Minitab Training
This is not a slide-only workshop.
Participants work directly in Minitab throughout the week.
The course includes:
- live demonstrations
- guided analysis
- practical datasets
- interpretation exercises
- manufacturing-focused examples
The goal is not just running software.
The goal is understanding what the data is telling you.
Interactive Classroom Experience
The training includes live audience interaction using Mentimeter surveys and real-time polling.
This creates:
- higher engagement
- faster feedback
- active participation
- practical discussion
The classroom environment encourages:
- questions
- operational discussion
- real-world examples
- practical problem solving
Who Should Attend
This course is ideal for:
- Manufacturing Engineers
- Quality Engineers
- Production Supervisors
- Process Engineers
- Continuous Improvement Professionals
- Operations Managers
- Supplier Quality Professionals
- Industrial Engineers
- Engineering Technicians
No advanced statistics background is required.
