The course was very easy to follow and understand in a logical manner. Navigating through slides is not very friendly, in the sense if one wants to review past content, etc.

It was very rigorous and engaging

Bailey Mills | 5
The content of the course is relevant and can be applied to my working environment. Learning different analysis techniques was interesting and will definitely benefit me in future projects at work.
Heleen Olivier | 5
Loved the online flexibility.
Kathleen Henley | 5
I have had previous courses in lean, but not six sigma. i learned a great deal from this course. I need to practice in Minitab to gain more understanding of the models and how to set up the data so that I can use them on projects/process improvement efforts at work.
Kathleen Altier | 5
I like that the course was well structured and overall easy to follow. I had gotten my belt before with a different company, but that put too much emphasis on the Six Sigma tools without giving an adequate understanding of how the tools were used in the flow of the DMAIC process.
