Black Belt Training

Jump right to the DMAIC Black Belt Curriculum.

One of the most visible aspects of BPE is the powerful problem-solving techniques taught to a cadre at your business. There are many perfectly adequate methodologies to solve problems, but Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control (DMAIC) has become the most recognized one with the advent of Six Sigma. It is efficient to train people in this methodology since it is already familiar to many. In addition, we have very powerful and highly-rated Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) Black Belt, Champion, and Green Belt training.

That is not to say that ROI's training meets the standards of other Six Sigma providers – it far and away exceeds them. Before we train any Black Belts, we work with your executive management to build a data-based infrastructure to assure that the projects your Black Belts work on are the most important ones in your business.

I was trained as a Black Belt at GE. The training I received from ROI was broader in scope, examined the subjects to more depth, and was presented in a way that was easier to understand – both the statistics and the application to real life. (ROI Black Belt Training Attendee, 2001)

What is it about ROI's Black Belt training that makes it so valuable?

First, we use a computer program written by ROI Senior Consultant Michael Petrovich called MVPstats. This program frees the attendees from spending time learning how to make a standard statistics computer program do basic statistics. MVPstats is easy to use and very powerful. It is the only reason we can achieve a scope and depth that surpasses others' training in the same amount of time.

Second, we use real-life examples as exercises in class to teach the concepts. When teaching on-site, we can even use that client's data to drive home many points.

Third, all of our instructors have years of experience in both applying and teaching the tools in many different industries. They have the ability to take questions that come up in class and use them as opportunities to further clarify and show the application of the advanced tools. We use a single instructor for the entire class. This requires much from the instructor, but we feel that the resulting bonding with the attendees and the time and effort saved since the instructor knows the attendees, their projects, and challenges, is more than worth it.

And fourth, all of our experience and statistical knowledge of what is useful and what works in real situations is distilled down into the best Black Belt curriculum available. And yes, we do get through it all in four weeks with some time to spare for questions and discussions. It is challenging, but those who have attended our seminars, even those previously trained as Black Belts, come out with a powerful new array of tools that have worked to save our clients hundreds of millions of dollars.

As impressive as the curriculum is, perhaps you will be more impressed to know that more than 9 out of 10 of our attendees pass (receive an 80%+) four on-line assessments, one administered after each training week.

These reasons are why ROI-trained Black Belts are so effective at saving their companies' money, and why they are the premier Black Belts today. Contact us today to see how this training can help your company.
