Sometimes the questions asked in in the mini quiz at the end of each lesson were not covered in the video. More examples to explain the terminology would aid understanding. The coffee shop examples helped my understanding

I've really enjoyed this course. I had little knowledge of Lean Six Sigma beforehand but I'm part of a project using the DMAIC methodology so I will be able to apply what I've learnt and make a valuable contribution.
Roisin Ahmed
Enjoyed the format, the videos and written explanations helped with my learning.
Dawn Childs-Darby
Clear and easy to follow.
Chris Gilbert
Poorly laid out training that relies on an Either / Or choice between blocks of text and uninspired, visual lacking video. The language is unnecessarily complex (part of the process of creating "expertise" is to create a new set of terms and phrases to differentiate between Experts and non-Experts - it's very common but very unhelpful). In all, it is a way of taking a good (and admirably simple) process and layering unhelpful complication. This is poorly designed training, poorly explained - it explains a process that it would itself, as a piece of training, benefit from the system it is explaining! Perhaps, in large part, this is a process suited to manufacturing and single process-driven enterprises - I do not feel it is actually a good fit for customer-focused service delivery, particularly not where there is a complex range of inter-linking processes.

This course is used in the Continuous Improvement curcciculum of multiple organisations. Hear what some of them have to say about it! (only good things, we hope)
Nikita Ford
I have enjoyed the sessions, in particular I liked how you used videos prior to the written text, it allowed me absorb the information more effectively and understand the text more. I also enjoyed the mini tests after each lesson as it helped me to confirm that I had understood the lesson and the content within it. Would recommend this course to a friend, thank you!

The short training videos at the beginning of each lesson were invaluable in helping understand the information being provided. Michel Doppert explained things concisely and clearly. I would recommend Lean Six Sigma for anyone interested in continuous improvement.

It was a well constructed and well-explained course. I was able to understand the concept of 6-sigma in detail. Practice assignments helped me to check if I have cleared the concept properly.
