    What Is Six Sigma Awareness Training and Why It MattersA Practical Introduction for Every Team

    Six Sigma Awareness Training in Australia is a one-day, non-certification course that introduces the Six Sigma methodology, the DMAIC improvement roadmap, and the quality vocabulary used on improvement projects. It is built for employees, managers and leaders across Australia who work alongside Six Sigma practitioners but do not need to become Green Belts or Black Belts. Six Sigma is a data-driven approach to reducing process variation and eliminating defects, with the well-known target of fewer than 3.4 defects per million opportunities (DPMO). Developed at Motorola in the 1980s and made famous by GE, it is now applied across Australian manufacturing, mining, healthcare, financial services and logistics. In eight focused hours you learn how DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve, Control) works, what each Six Sigma role does, and how Lean and Six Sigma combine. There is no exam and no formal credential. You leave with a course completion record from Invensis Learning and the confidence to contribute to, support and communicate about improvement work. Start building a shared improvement language with Invensis Learning.

    Frequently Asked QuestionsHere's everything you may ask...

    Six Sigma Awareness Training is a one-day, non-certification course that introduces the Six Sigma methodology, the DMAIC roadmap, key quality concepts and the roles on a Six Sigma team. It is designed for employees, managers and leaders who want to understand Six Sigma and support improvement projects.

    General

    What is Six Sigma Awareness Training?

    Six Sigma Awareness Training is a one-day, non-certification course that introduces the Six Sigma methodology, the DMAIC roadmap, key quality concepts and the roles on a Six Sigma team. It is designed for employees, managers and leaders who want to understand Six Sigma and support improvement projects.

    Who should attend this Six Sigma course?

    It suits anyone in an organisation using or adopting Six Sigma, including team members, supervisors, managers, senior leaders who sponsor projects, and professionals considering Yellow Belt or Green Belt study. No prior quality or statistical knowledge is needed.

    Is Six Sigma awareness worth it for my career in Australia?

    Yes. Six Sigma thinking is valued across Australian manufacturing, mining, healthcare, financial services and logistics, where continuous improvement roles are in steady demand. The awareness builds a practical, portable skill you can apply in almost any role.

    Do I need any prior experience or prerequisites?

    No. The course has no prerequisites and assumes no background in quality or statistics. It is built to give a general audience a clear, shared understanding of Six Sigma from the ground up.

    How is this different from Green Belt or Black Belt training?

    This is an awareness-level introduction, not a practitioner programme. It helps you understand and support Six Sigma projects, whereas Yellow, Green and Black Belt training qualify you to lead them. Awareness is the ideal first step before those.

    Pricing

    How much does the Six Sigma course cost in Australia?

    Pricing varies by delivery mode, group size and schedule, so the fee is available on request. Corporate and group rates are offered for teams. Request a quote or speak with a learning advisor for current pricing in your region.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes instructor-led delivery of all six modules, structured courseware and learning resources, interactive exercises and case examples, and a course completion record from Invensis Learning. Request a quote to confirm inclusions for your chosen format.

    Do you offer group or corporate discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with tailored schedules and volume-based pricing for large employee groups. It is a common choice for organisations training whole teams before a Six Sigma or Lean Six Sigma rollout. Ask about corporate pricing.

    Is there a separate exam or credential fee?

    No. This is a non-certification course with no exam and no separate credential fee. You receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning as part of the training, so only the training fee applies.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, with instalment options on selected plans. Talk to a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam for Six Sigma Awareness Training?

    No. This is a non-certification course with no examination. Learning is reinforced through interactive discussion, case study examples and team exercises across the one-day programme.

    Will I receive a certificate after the course?

    You receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning. No formal credential is awarded by an external body, as this is an awareness-level training course rather than a certification programme.

    How is my understanding checked during training?

    There is no formal assessment. Instead, interactive discussions and team exercises throughout the day let you apply Six Sigma concepts to your own work, so understanding is built and reinforced as you go.

    Does this course qualify me to lead Six Sigma projects?

    No. It is an awareness-level introduction and does not qualify you to lead DMAIC projects. To lead projects, progress to Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt, Green Belt or Black Belt training, which are the practitioner-level pathways.

    What will I be able to do after completing the training?

    You will be able to use Six Sigma vocabulary confidently, understand the five DMAIC phases and the Six Sigma roles, contribute to project teams, and understand Lean Six Sigma as a combined approach. It is also a strong foundation for Yellow or Green Belt study.

    Course Content

    What topics does the Six Sigma course cover?

    The one-day programme covers six modules: Six Sigma history and philosophy, key concepts and terminology, the DMAIC methodology, Six Sigma roles and structure, an awareness-level tour of key tools, and Lean Six Sigma in practice.

    What is DMAIC and is it covered?

    Yes. DMAIC stands for Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve and Control, the core Six Sigma roadmap for improving existing processes. The course walks through all five phases at awareness level so you understand what happens in each.

    Which Six Sigma tools will I learn about?

    You gain awareness of tools such as SIPOC, fishbone (Ishikawa) diagrams, Pareto charts, control charts, process capability and Voice of the Customer, and understand where each fits within a DMAIC project.

    How long is the training and how is it delivered?

    The course runs for one day (eight hours) and is available as live virtual instructor-led, classroom and onsite corporate delivery. It combines concept explanations, real-world case examples, discussion and team exercises.

    Does the course cover Lean Six Sigma?

    Yes. It introduces Lean Six Sigma as the combined approach that pairs Lean waste elimination with Six Sigma variation reduction, and shows how Lean tools complement the DMAIC methodology.

    Enrolment

    How do I enrol in the Six Sigma course?

    You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and you will receive access to the schedule, courseware and learning resources. A learning advisor can help you pick the right session.

    What delivery formats are available?

    The training is offered as online live virtual instructor-led sessions, classroom training and customised onsite corporate delivery, so you can choose the format that fits your schedule and team.

    Can this be delivered onsite for my team in Australia?

    Yes. Corporate onsite delivery is popular for this course, letting a whole site or department build a shared Six Sigma vocabulary at once as the first step in an improvement programme. Ask about corporate options for your location.

    How soon can I start?

    Public sessions run regularly, and corporate sessions are scheduled around your team's availability. View upcoming schedules or talk to a learning advisor to find the next suitable date.

    What is the reschedule or cancellation policy?

    Refunds and rescheduling follow our published policy, and flexible options are available on selected plans. Contact our team for the details that apply to your enrolment.
