Changes are possible. The course content is updated regularly.
The course enables you to implement Six Sigma projects independently and successfully in accordance with ISO 13053-1 (DMAIC). You will be able to use the specific tools and methods with confidence and thus implement complex improvement projects responsibly.
You will also be familiar with the main SAP applications in production planning and round off your professional profile with SAP user certification.
The course is aimed at production employees who want to learn or deepen their knowledge of the SAP process. The course is also suitable for consultants, project staff, key users and other employees from specialist departments who are responsible for the introduction of production planning with SAP.
Six Sigma is an internationally standardized and recognized method of quality management and a management tool for process improvement. By obtaining the Green Belt, you demonstrate your mastery of the methodology in your profession. As a Six Sigma project manager, you will be in demand across all industries in medium-sized and large companies, thus enhancing your career profile in the long term.
In addition, you will acquire the globally standardized and recognized SAP user certificate for production planning (PP). It is considered one of the most important manufacturer certifications in the commercial sector, with which you can improve your career prospects on the job market across all industries.
