This course has stablished a foundation about implementing the Six Sigma Tools at the organization and has given me a context in many ways about applying the skills and tools for improvement. Also. I have been awakening to go straight forward in a progressive and continuous learning for improving the organization and myself.

I immensely enjoyed the course and the content. Thankful that the discussion thread gave some feedback when there were typos in the content assignment. Given that this is self paced course, I would strongly recommend corrections and edits made in the presentation by regularly monitoring the discussion board.

Great course, great content and resources. Only some comments as feedback: I think that I found some ambiguity in some quizzes, specially when a question could have two answers depending on if you take it from a video or the book. But it was very limited throughout the course, I'd say that 96% of it was great!

I have been dedicated to expanding my knowledge and skills in process improvement methodologies. The Six Sigma training provided me with a deep understanding of data-driven decision making, problem-solving techniques, and the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) framework.

Definitely significantly more information than in the yellow belt course. Many of the tools recoverd in this house from the yellow belt course. There was more depth though. I didn't mind learning it again either because i wanted those concepts to truly sink in.

Very clear and detailed explanation on the methodologies and tools of six sigma. With Powerpoint slides being able to download from the site. And of course, six sigma provides bountiful materials for equipping anyone who wants to work in process improvement.

I liked the videos and examples used, they make more understandable the content of the course.

Also, one useful tool is to first allow the student to read the content from the book and then explain the topic in one video. I am very happy with this course.

Great supplemental reading and to the point instruction. This is good starting point to learn the variety of tools used in project management. I am eager to learn more of the technical analysis and how all of these tools work together in depth.

Six Sigma gave more clarity to emphasises process optimisation by identifying and eliminating waste and inefficiencies. It was assisted to streamline processes and how to achieve organisations higher levels of productivity and efficiency.

Very Good course, but I think it would be better to include material for reading with some examples and problems to practice.

Videos might be longer including some examples.

I think this way course will be more beneficial and practical.
