DescriptionAbout this Learning Opportunity

Designed for seasoned project managers, this project management certification course takes you beyond an introduction of key fundamentals to deepen your understanding and practical application of project management tools, methods, and processes. You will view project management from the perspective of a life cycle approach. Throughout this Project Management Professional (PMP®) exam prep course, you will work through the project life cycle—from building a business case to closing down a project. You will see how all the concepts fit together and how the decisions you make in the early days of the project lay the foundation for executing, controlling, and closing the project. If you are interested in obtaining your Project Management Professional certification, this program will provide content designed to help with your studies and overall Project Management Professional prep. The contact hours may be applied for the Project Management Professional exam education prerequisite or as professional development units (PDUs) if you are already certified. Are you interested in obtaining a highly-valued and much-sought-after professional certification? If so, the Certified Six Sigma Black Belt course is for you! The Six Sigma methodology is a data-driven approach to removing defects and improving processes at any organization. As a Six Sigma Black Belt, you will be responsible for initiating projects and directing the efforts of company teams. In addition to mastering key Six Sigma concepts and methods, you'll obtain valuable information that will prepare you for the Six Sigma Black Belt certification offered by the American Society for Quality (ASQ). Learn how to effectively apply the elements and methods of Six Sigma. Understand how a vast body of knowledge relates to the DMAIC (define, measure, analyze, improve, and control) model. Determine the relationship of basic statistics to Six Sigma and learn about the Six Sigma business case including strategic planning, the voice of the customer (VOC), quality function deployment (QFD), benchmarking, and financial investment methods. Discover how to use brainstorming, Pareto charts, and critical to quality to help define processes, problems, and opportunities. Master the use of other key tools such as cause and effect diagrams, checksheets, scatter diagrams, failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), and force field analysis. Learn the basics of advanced Six Sigma tools such as design of experiments (DOE), analysis of variance (ANOVA), hypothesis testing, control charts, and probability distributions. This program does not include the cost to sit for the Project Management Professional or Six Sigma Black Belt certification exams.
