Six Sigma Master Black Belt Course Overview

Six Sigma is a globally recognised, data-driven methodology that aims to eliminate defects through successive business process improvement. This technique is based on the idea that defects can eventually be removed from a process with continual quality checks and enhancements, and variability of results can subsequently be minimised. It improves business processes by minimising errors, reducing variability, and enhancing customer satisfaction.

The Six Sigma Master Black Belt (MBB) Certification is the most advanced of all Six Sigma Courses. MBB’s have exceptional knowledge of Six Sigma in that they represent the organisations’ Six Sigma Internal Consultant and overlook all quality improvement projects.

In this 15-day Six Sigma Master Black Belt training course of The Knowledge Academy, the delegates will learn Six Sigma methodologies, lean principles, and their applications. They will also learn about leadership styles, continuous improvement, and strategic management. Our instructors with years of experience in providing interactive training courses will teach this course.
