Programme

From define to control

We work according to the DMAIC structure of Lean Six Sigma.
  1. 01

    Define and measure

    You are introduced to Lean Six Sigma and the DMAIC structure. You learn to scope a project with a project charter, map processes and draw up a data collection plan. This makes clear what you want to improve and where you stand today.

  2. 02

    Analyse

    You learn to visualise and analyse data to find the real causes of problems. You choose suitable tools and explore which insights point the way to a solution.

  3. 03

    Improve and control

    You develop and select solutions, assess risks and create a control plan. In doing so you connect Hard & Heart: a strong solution in substance, combined with attention to behaviour, collaboration and acceptance.

Practical assignments and coaching

Applying it in your own practice

In the programmes with practical guidance you work on an improvement or change assignment from your own organisation. You apply the theory directly and discuss your choices, progress and learning experiences with your personal coach. Together you choose the approach and tools that suit your challenge.

During the programme you get access to the online DEPLOY toolbox with training material, templates and simulations. AIDA, your digital Lean Six Sigma assistant, helps you along the way with questions about the methodology and how to apply it in your project.

This is how you learn step by step to improve independently: show, do together, do yourself.

Certification and requirements

The programme concludes with Green Belt certification by a Master Black Belt of DEPLOY Training & Coaching. The chosen format determines whether you follow only the theory programme or also complete practical certification.

For practical certification you apply the methodology in your own assignment, record your experience in an experience case and complete the coaching log. Your development and application are evaluated at completion.

During the intake we discuss your learning goals and a suitable practical assignment. Time to learn and apply, plus support from your manager, form an important basis for the programme.

Participant experience

“I already knew many of the tools, but above all the training gave me structure.”

Renske — project professional at a technical organisation (translated from Dutch)

Through the programme, Renske learned to choose more deliberately which tool helps at which moment. The DMAIC structure gave her an overview: from defining the problem to sustaining the improvement.

Frequently asked questions

When does the next group start?

Get in touch for current start dates. Together we agree on a schedule that suits your availability and, for a practical programme, your improvement assignment.

Can the programme be run in-company?

Yes, there is a client-specific programme in which training and practical guidance are tailored to your organisation and challenges. In an advisory conversation we discuss the desired content and planning.

What if I am not sure the programme suits me?

We discuss your experience, learning goals and work situation without obligation. We also look at whether a theory programme is sufficient or whether a programme with individual practical coaching is a better fit.
