Course Overview

The ‘Six Sigma: Analyze, Improve, Control’ certification is a study about data processing and problem-solving with the application of statistical analysis and quality management techniques and tools along with an understanding of the root causes and the analyzing strategy. This online course is provided by the online educational platform Edx with the Technical University of Munich(TUM). The course classes are organized for eight weeks and the students are required to spend three to four hours every week to complete the course through independent learning.

This business and management course study is based on the tools such as 8D and 5 Whys. the instructors for this course are faculty members of the Technical University of Munich, Martin Grunow(Production and supply management), and Holly Ott(operations management). 

The ‘Six Sigma: Analyze, Improve, Control’ training is an introductory level course for which the students can receive the certificate through the verified track at the end of the programme. If one wants limited but free access their pick can be an audit track and if someone needs unlimited course material access along with a certificate they can upgrade to the paid verified track.
