If you want to learn how to systematically select solutions or choices based on clearly defined criteria, this is the course for you. These tools can be used individually, but are most effective when used together with a team, where everyone is motivated to select an ideal outcome.
The tools taught in this course are essential to multiple continuous improvement methodologies. They are used extensively in Lean, Lean Six Sigma and in the Improve phase of the DMAIC project method.
While these tools are most often used within a professional context to select the best possible solution out of several possibilities, you could use them in any situation. Choosing a vacation locale, deciding which book to read first, it’s all possible!
This Decision-making course was developed together with the Master Black Belts and Lean Experts of The Lean Six Sigma Company. Together, we translated their years of experience with VSM into a concise and practice-oriented online course, based on the independent ISO 18404 and ISO 13053 standards.

Pass rate
Upon finishing this Decision-making course you will be awarded with an official certificate of completion from The Lean Six Sigma Company.
This certification serves as proof that you know how to apply the Benefit Effort Matrix, AHP weighting tool and the Decision and Pugh Matrix tools.
You will learn three of the most essential and often-used decision-making tools, namely the Benefit Effort Matrix, Decision Matrix and Pugh Matrix. You will learn how and when to use these tools to make systematic, non-biased decisions.
You will also learn how to use the Analytic Hierarchy Processing tool, which is used to assign weight factors to criteria by comparing them to each other in regards to relevance. These weighting factors can then be used as input for your Decision or Pugh Matrix.
Concise and nonbiased decision-making is one of the most highly valued skills in the workplace. The tools you will learn are based on principles that you can easily incorporate in your mindset. In fact, you might find yourself quick-sketching mental decision matrixes in your head when confronted with even the most mundane of choices. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!
