December 17, 2009 - Columbus, OH — MoreSteam.com, the leading global provider of online Lean Six Sigma training and support technology, announces its release of a new Lean Six Sigma Green Belt e-learning course designed specifically for Service professionals and organizations. With over 70 hours of online Lean Six Sigma content, MoreSteam’s new Transactional Green Belt course features examples and interactive practice exercises drawn directly from MoreSteam’s experience supporting multiple service industries, such as healthcare, banking, and retail, and service job functions, including human resources, finance, and sales and marketing.
By applying insights gained through serving thousands of corporate customers and training over 200,000 Lean Six Sigma students, many of whom work in non-manufacturing environments, MoreSteam designers have developed a Green Belt course that delivers the powerful tools that Green Belts use most, without over-delivering content that rarely will be relevant in a service-oriented environment. Because the course limits coverage to the tools and concepts most important to transactional settings, students spend less time in actual training – and more time in applying the concepts and using the tools in realistic practice, thereby accelerating project completion.
The new course is targeted to service individuals who wish to complete Green Belt training and to large corporations who need to train Green Belts over a variety of job functions. Green Belts typically apply Lean Six Sigma techniques to process improvement projects as a part of their full-time jobs but do not need expertise in the more advanced statistical and Lean tools. Because MoreSteam delivers its courses online with instructor support, students have complete scheduling flexibility and a lower cost relative to traditional classroom instruction. For larger organizations, online Green Belt training can be deployed and absorbed more quickly and at less expense to a wider audience, advancing corporate financial goals and employee adoption of the Lean Six Sigma initiative.
MoreSteam’s Transactional Green Belt course focuses on what service Green Belts need most: the fundamentals of data collection and analysis and Lean tools as applied in service settings. The course de-emphasizes the tools and statistical techniques more prevalent in manufacturing and engineering, instead focusing on examples and interactive practice exercises relevant to transactional work, whether it be in healthcare, service or financial services. The modular course design follows the Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control (D-M-A-I-C) methodology, including Lean concepts where appropriate. With a heavy practice orientation, as much as 50% of a student’s time is spent working through interactive practice exercises and online assessments.
“Service companies are still an underserved market for Lean Six Sigma, primarily because most students are forced to learn engineering-based techniques and tools that have little to do with the types of customer-facing processes they need to improve,” explained MoreSteam.com CEO, Bill Hathaway. “This Green Belt course is geared towards transactional issues and processes, while still delving deep into the fundamentals of DMAIC, Lean, and change management. Medical technicians, HR managers, marketing managers and back-office process owners will all benefit tremendously from this online course. It’s also an ideal alternative for manufacturing companies who wish to expand their Lean Six Sigma Green Belt training to service departments.”
Estimated at 70 hours of content, the Lean Six Sigma Transactional Green Belt course costs $1,800. After finishing all modules and quizzes, students receive a certificate of training completion worth 7 CEUs or 70 PDUs for continuing education credits. Course access is for 270 days.
