Before a Six Sigma team can begin to improve an organization's processes, it must measure key performance indicators. By doing so, the team will be able to understand baseline performance and uncover problem areas. Key performance indicators are also useful in assessing the impact of changes and improvements on performance. Quality tools such as charts and diagrams enable the collection and visual presentation of information. In this course, you will learn how to create and use charts and diagrams that are commonly used by Six Sigma practitioners. The course covers Pareto charts, flowcharts, run charts, and cause and effect diagrams, check sheets, scatter diagrams, and histograms.
