Did you know we now provide Public Six Sigma Training? Click here for details In–house Six Sigma Training Catalyst can work with you to develop a customised Six Sigma programme which will build on your current quality programme and skills. As with all Culture change 'One Size Fits All' is dangerous and inefficient, but the following will give some idea of the building blocks we might use. How to implement Six Sigma – A 2 day workshop designed for managers who want to introduce Six Sigma into their organisation. This workshop introduces Six Sigma, and then covers everything needed to set up and manage an effective and appropriate Six Sigma programme for your organisation.  Leadership / Champion’s Workshop - A 1 or  2 - day leadership workshop offers you a practical and hands-on view of Six Sigma, how to manage with metrics, and how to align measures and improvement efforts. In this workshop the management team will learn how to select high impact  projects for the project leaders and how to support and review their progress. Yellow Belt Course – A 3 day training course which will suit anyone who needs a thorough understanding of what Six Sigma is and how it works in practice without yet requiring the more advanced statistical tools. The course includes practical training on the most commonly used Six Sigma tools and on completion of this course delegates will be able to work effectively as members of Six Sigma projects.  Green Belt Foundation Course – This 6 day training course is typically delivered in two 3-day modules and is designed for part-time project leaders and team members. It will set the stage for certification as a Green Belt in your Six Sigma program. It will also provide the foundation to progress to a Black Belt. On completion attendees will have the skills necessary to run basic Six Sigma projects.   Green Belt Plus – This 8 day course configured in modules first covers the Foundation programme described above (6 days) and then introduces the use of Minitab without going into detailed use of the advanced statistical tools .  Advanced Green Belt – This 9 day course is typically run in 3 modules each of 3-days. The first module is an accelerated Foundation course, followed by two 3-day modules providing a hands-on introduction to Minitab and then a series of practical activities covering Six Sigma statistical tools.    Black Belt Course - An additional 10 day programme (split into smaller modules) will convert Green Belts with some basic project successes behind them into Black Belts - full time project leaders for the more complex Six Sigma projects. The more advanced tools and techniques will be covered together with the basic 'soft' skills needed to ensure project success.   Advanced Course - In two additional weeks of training your senior project leaders and coaches (Master Black Belts) learn advanced statistical methodologies and how to use them in the context of improvement projects.   Process Management - This two day training programme is created for process owners and process management teams to learn how to maintain processes professionally, thus ensuring the gain from improvement activities is not lost and new opportunities for improvement are identified. Lean Thinking in Service & Transaction – This three day programme introduces the principles of lean thinking and their application in non-manufacturing applications in a practical, interactive manner.   Designing Six Sigma Processes - In a four day programme  participants learn the right methodologies to create new processes (and products)  which will operate at higher levels of effectiveness from day one. Consulting Skills - This two day training session is  designed  for project coaches to review and improve their ability to consult improvement projects. Change Management - To understand and apply the tools of managing change and to act in the role of a change agent this 2 ˝ day workshop will be of help to the project leaders handling large scale projects. Team Development – A one day team working session to help project teams build an effective team. This is a highly participative day that looks at the characteristics of ‘brilliant teams’ in a fun but involving fashion.
