Course Description

DMAIC Problem Solving is a comprehensive, computer-based interactive training system that teaches employees how to use the DMAIC (define, measure, analyze, improve, and control) problem-solving process to improve manufacturing quality and productivity.

DMAIC Problem Solving is divided into two units: Getting Started and the DMAIC Project Cycle.  Upon completion of the lessons in each unit, learners can take the DMAIC Challenge to test their knowledge of what they learned in the unit.
