Six Sigma Series
What is Six Sigma?
Six Sigma is a fact based, data driven philosophy in quality improvement
that values defect prevention over defect detection methods. Six Sigma
drives customer satisfaction and bottom line profit improvement by reducing
variation and eliminating Lean waste, thereby continually improving
organisations' competitive position.
Six Sigma applies everywhere that variation and waste exists, and as a consequence applies to all organisations, processes, systems, methods and everywhere people are involved in work or play. The Six Sigma tools are designed to improve processes, products and services. They are extensively used in manufacturing, food, banking, service, utilities, education, construction, defence, electronics and by software developers.
The University of South Australia has an agreement with the American Society for Quality to deliver Six Sigma Green and Black Belt programs. These programs are designed to provide participants with the necessary skills and knowledge for the ASQ Certification examination. We also have several UniSA developed Statistical short courses to assist people to understand and apply essential statistical tools to their businesses.
The ASQ is the world's leading member organisation devoted to quality and
productivity improvement and is a global benchmark in Six Sigma
Certification/Qualification. The certification from the ASQ is considered
a mark of quality excellence by most industries around the world.
The UniSA Six Sigma training, provides breakthrough in boosting bottom line profits through mastering quality and process improvement skills. Our courses are delivered by ASQ approved Master Black Belts who are hands on practitioners with past experience of Six Sigma application within Motorola where Six Sigma was first developed.
