EXECUTIVE EDUCATION - Certification Programs


Lean Six Sigma Certification Programs

At Six Sigma Philippines, we don't believe training needs to be complex to be valuable. Rather, training should be practical, understandable, relevant, enjoyable and engaging to be effective.  Training should make you want to become a practitioner and strengthen your capabilities.

Our goal is to facilitate learning and help you obtain an expertise in the tools that will lead to on-going successes. Our practical approach to training allows, even those who hate math, to embrace the discipline of statistics in
making management decisions.

We use "experiential learning method".  We make modules practical and bite-sized pieces, and immediately let you apply the tools, methodologies and concepts of Lean Six Sigma. We make sure you retain what you learn so you can immediately implement Six Sigma process improvement tools and methodology.

More importantly, we are committed to help you master the skills that will deliver a substantial ROI (Return on Investment) for your career and your company.


Who needs experiential learning?
Experience is the best teacher.


"In the realm of training, it’s important to distinguish between instances where instruction is sufficient or where experience-based training is required."
—Ken Spero

Simulation provides an opportunity for participants to think critically and exercise judgment in realistic scenarios. Experiential learning, or experience design, combines content, context, and time to encourage participants to process the challenges facing their company or organization both intellectually and emotionally.

Simulation is not a science.
Combining one’s work experience and expertise with the power of storytelling is an effective method to organize content to train others.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)


About Lean Six Sigma

1. What is Six Sigma?
Six Sigma is not a fraternity nor a secret group out to rule the world.  Six Sigma is a disciplined, focused, data driven, process improvement methodology that uses DMAIC to reduce the cost of poor quality: process delays, defects and variations.  Its ultimate goal is to have a process that produces no more than 3.4 defects per million opportunities.

2. What is 3.4 defects per million opportunities?
Let us say that you manufacture a mug, and you only have one way to say if you have a good mug or a defective mug (if it is broken), then, you have a six sigma process, if you manufacture 1,000,000 mugs, and only 3.4 or less are defective.  It is almost perfect!

3. Is Six Sigma different from Lean Six Sigma?
Six Sigma and Lean Six Sigma are used interchangeably.  Six Sigma is like a "Big Process Improvement Toolbox" and Lean principles are tools inside the Six Sigma tool box.  Lean focuses on reduction of wastes to make your process faster, and six sigma focuses on reduction of defects.

4. Oh no! I hate math.  Is Six Sigma all about statistics?
No, Six Sigma is all about satisfying the requirements of the customers.  Basic statistics are required to analyze data.  With the use of statistical software like Minitab, statistics is as easy as using MS Excel.


5. Is Six Sigma only applicable to manufacturing companies?
BIG No!  Six Sigma was developed by Motorola and was initially used by manufacturing companies but was later adapted by service, BPO, Call Center, Insurance, Government, Banks, and even Health Care industries.

6. Is Six Sigma and Project Management  Methodology the same?
No.  Six Sigma and project management complements but are not the same.  Six Sigma focuses on process improvement, while project management methodology is about managing projects in general.

7.
Is Six Sigma Certification and PMP Certification redundant?
No.  Both certifications complement and are like advance business degrees.  There are very few Certified Six Sigma and PMP professionals in the Philippines.

8.  Why implement Six Sigma?
FINANCIAL RESULTS
From 1987 until 2007, use of Six Sigma, the popular business improvement methodology, has saved Fortune 500 companies an estimated $427 billion, according to research published by iSixSigma.

The estimate is based on reported savings linked to Six Sigma in public documents. “Our data also showed that corporate-wide Six Sigma deployments save an average 2 percent of total revenue per year,” added Michael Marx, research manager for iSixSigma.

These numbers help explain why Six Sigma adoption has increased phenomenally in recent years. “Our figures show that Six Sigma started out slowly in the late 1980s but then took off in the mid-1990s once people started seeing successes at companies like GE and AlliedSignal,” said Marx.

CULTURE OF CHANGE

Recognition is growing among business leaders of the need for a culture change within their organizations. Moving from recognition to reality, however, is the difficult step.

The problem lies in the perception – or misconception – of what a culture change actually entails.

Culture change is not a program with a completion date, nor is it a quick fix. It is an ongoing journey – a journey that requires leaders to understand the current state of the organization, establish a clear vision, align behaviors and instill accountability.


About Six Sigma Certification

1. How do I earn a Six Sigma Certification?
Six Sigma Green and Black Belt Certifications can be earned if you satisfy 3 requirements:  1. Complete the learning sessions; 2. Pass practical and written examinations; 3. Complete an actual Six Sigma project.

2. What are the requirements before we can enroll?  Are lower belts required before we take higher belts in Six Sigma?
There are no requirements to train in Six Sigma.  Lower belts are not also pre-requisites in attending higher Six Sigma belts.  You can even immediately enroll in a Six Sigma Black Belt program.

3. Is there a central certifying body in Six Sigma?
None.  Unlike ISO, there is no central certifying body in Six Sigma.  Only the certified individuals, usually Master Black Belts (MBBs) can certify individuals as long as you meet the minimum 3 requirements.

4. What if I don't complete or close my project, can I still be certified as a Green or Black Belt?
No.  All 3 requirements should be met before you can be certified as a Green or Black Belt.  After you attend the training, you shall be issued a Certificate of Attendance, meaning you're "Trained" in Six Sigma.  After you satisfy the 3 requirements, you will receive another certificate, and you'll be "Certified" in Six Sigma.

5.  Who shall issue the Six Sigma Certification?
In Six Sigma, it is the Master Black Belt (only 'through' the organization he/ she represents) that certifies individuals and not organizations in itself (unlike ISO with accredited certifying bodies and PMI for PMP).  If a Master Black Belt leaves an organization, the organization shall loose its ability to certify individuals.  In Six Sigma, there is NO central certifying body.  Be cautious of organizations that is attempting to be one, it's intention is solely for profit (like IASSC, etc.).

6.  Is there a time limit for me to complete my Green/ Black Belt project?
You'll be given one year to complete your project.  It is advisable though to complete it by 3-5 months after the last training day.

7.  Whats in it for me?  What are the career-benefits of being a Six Sigma Certified individual?
 One, Six Sigma certification is like an advance business degree, recognized world wide, not only here in the country.  Two, it can boost your career and can get the promotion you are aiming for (especially for companies with six sigma programs.  Three, unlike MBA, there are only few six sigma certified professionals in the Philippines.  The demand for six sigma professionals are increasing since a lot of companies across industries start to adopt six sigma each year.

8.  How much is the salary of a Six Sigma Green and Black Belt in the Philippines.
Please look for the salary survey article posted on our blog:  http://www.6sigmaph.com/blog.html


9.  What are the ways or channels to earn a Six Sigma Training and Certification?
There are several ways, or channels, to earn a Six Sigma Certification:  eLearning (White and Yellow Belt)- a great place to start in Six Sigma; Class Room Trainings (Green and Black)- in partnership with iAcademy School of Continuing Education, at Ayala Avenue, Makati City; and Apprenticeship Program (Green and Black)- eLearning Modules with Project Consultation Hours after completing the online training.  Designed for busy professionals or those who cannot attend the class room training because of proximity to Makati City, budget, unable to attend the class room training because of work, etc.)

All channels require hard work and persistence.  Learning the Six Sigma discipline and applying it to be a change agent is no easy task, but the rewards are all worth it:  generous compensation, promotions, and earning respect form your boss and peers.


10. When can I start a program?
For the e-Learning and Apprenticeship programs, you may start anytime.  For the classroom training, please visit our training page or email ask@6sigmaPH.com.

11. 
How is the apprenticeship program different from the classroom training? I noticed the huge difference in the prices of these two programs and I want to know more the pros and cons of each.

The course content of both class room and apprenticeship programs are the same.  The difference is the learning channels.  The classroom is your typical class room setting and we have partnered with iAcademy School of Continuing Education at Makati City.  It is more expensive (but still the most affordable and more practical than other providers).  One big advantage of class room training is you have classmates to socialize and learn together.  For the disadvantage, aside from it being more expensive, classes are held Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, which means you'll have to file for leaves from office, if you're not sponsored by your company.

For the Apprenticeship program, advantages are:  most affordable to earn your certification, you may start anytime, you'll give access to the eLearning Program for 1 year, which you can access anytime as long as you have internet connection, and an 8 hour project consultation hours, with a Master Black Belt or Black Belt,  to help you with your project, the last requirement to earn your Six Sigma certification.  Disadvantage is, you should have a strong internal motivation to complete all the eLearning modules.  Based on our former Six Sigma Apprentices, 5% were not able to complete the eLearning Modules. 


The apprenticeship program is cheaper because operating expenses is also low.  No space rental fee, electricity, training materials expense, etc.

12.  What are the steps for me to earn a Six Sigma Certification via Six Sigma Apprenticeship Program?


STEP 1: Complete the eLearning Modules, details of modules are found here: http://www.6sigmaph.com/apprenticeship.html
STEP 2: Pass the examinations
STEP 3: After completing Steps 1 & 2, you'll be issued a Six Sigma Certificate of Completion, meaning, you're Six Sigma (Green or Black) Belt "Trained"
STEP 4: Complete Actual Six Sigma Project- you're entitled to project consultation hours with Master Black Belt or Black Belt to help you with your project.  Consultation can be face-to-face meeting in Makati City, Phone, e-Mail, Chat, etc.  You'll be given 1 year after completing Steps 1 & 2, to close your project, although it is advisable to finish it by 3-5 months.
STEP 5: After completing the actual Six Sigma project, you'll receive another certificate, now you're "Certified" in Six Sigma (Green or Black)
