    What Is Six Sigma Awareness Training?UntitledA One-Day Foundation in Quality

    Six Sigma Awareness Training is a one-day awareness course that gives employees, managers, and leaders a clear, practical understanding of Six Sigma, the data-driven methodology used to reduce process variation and eliminate defects. You learn how the approach works and how to support it, without needing to become a full-time practitioner. First developed at Motorola in the 1980s and made famous by GE, Six Sigma sets a demanding quality target of fewer than 3.4 defects per million opportunities. In a single day you will explore its philosophy, the DMAIC method, the key concepts and roles, and how Lean Six Sigma combines speed with quality. No prior quality or statistics knowledge is required. The course suits anyone who works alongside Six Sigma teams and wants to contribute with confidence, and it is an ideal first step before Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt or Green Belt training. Build your data-driven quality foundation with Invensis Learning.

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

    Six Sigma Awareness Training is a one-day awareness course that introduces the Six Sigma methodology, the DMAIC method, key quality concepts, and the Six Sigma roles. It is designed for employees, managers, and leaders who want to understand Six Sigma and support improvement projects without becoming full-time practitioners.

    General

    What is Six Sigma Awareness Training?

    Six Sigma Awareness Training is a one-day awareness course that introduces the Six Sigma methodology, the DMAIC method, key quality concepts, and the Six Sigma roles. It is designed for employees, managers, and leaders who want to understand Six Sigma and support improvement projects without becoming full-time practitioners.

    Who should attend this course?

    Anyone who works alongside Six Sigma teams. That includes front-line employees, supervisors, managers, project sponsors, and senior leaders across any industry, as well as professionals considering a Yellow Belt or Green Belt path. No prior quality or statistics knowledge is assumed.

    Is Six Sigma awareness worth it for non-specialists?

    Yes. Awareness training helps you contribute to improvement work, speak the language of quality, and understand the reports and reviews that Green Belts and Black Belts produce. It is also a low-risk way to decide whether to pursue a practitioner belt later.

    Do I need any prior experience or background?

    No. The course has no prerequisites and is built for a general audience. Concepts such as variation, DPMO, and DMAIC are taught at awareness level, so you do not need a quality, engineering, or statistics background to take part.

    Will this course make me a Green Belt or Black Belt?

    No. This is an awareness-level introduction, not a practitioner program, so it does not qualify you to lead DMAIC projects. It is an ideal foundation before Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt, Green Belt, or Black Belt training, which are the practitioner routes.

    Pricing

    How much does Six Sigma Awareness Training cost?

    Pricing is available on request and varies by delivery format, region, and group size. Public and corporate options are available in USD. Request a quote and a learning advisor will share the best option for you or your team.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes instructor-led training across all six modules, structured courseware and learning resources, real-world case studies, interactive exercises, and a course completion record from Invensis Learning. Ask a learning advisor for the full inclusions on your chosen format.

    Do you offer group or corporate pricing?

    Yes. This course is frequently delivered to whole teams as the first step in a Six Sigma rollout, and volume-based corporate pricing is available. Contact us for a tailored group quote.

    Are there discounts for training multiple employees?

    Yes. Group and corporate rates are designed for departments, sites, and organizations training many people at once. Share your team size and preferred format, and we will prepare a quote that fits your budget.

    How do I get a quote and pay for the course?

    Request a quote through the enquiry form or speak with a learning advisor. We accept major cards and bank transfers, and corporate invoicing is available for group bookings. Talk to us to confirm the options for your region.

    Assessment

    Is there a test at the end of the course?

    No. Six Sigma Awareness Training is an awareness course with no formal test to pass. Learning is reinforced through interactive discussion, real-world case studies, and team exercises during the one-day program.

    Do I receive anything on completion?

    Yes. On completing the one-day program you receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning that recognizes your participation and the Six Sigma awareness knowledge you have gained.

    How is my learning checked during the course?

    Through participation rather than a formal assessment. Trainers use discussions, case studies, and team exercises so you can apply Six Sigma concepts to your own work context and confirm your understanding as you go.

    Is this a formal credential?

    No. This is awareness-level training, not a formal credential. You gain practical Six Sigma knowledge and a course completion record from Invensis Learning, which you can build on with Yellow Belt or Green Belt training later.

    What can I do after completing the training?

    You will be able to understand what Six Sigma is, use its vocabulary confidently, follow the five DMAIC phases, recognize the Six Sigma roles, and contribute more effectively to improvement teams. It is also a strong foundation for a Yellow or Green Belt.

    Course Content

    What topics does the course cover?

    The one-day program covers six areas: the Six Sigma philosophy and business case, key concepts and terminology, the DMAIC methodology, the Six Sigma roles, an awareness-level look at core tools, and Lean Six Sigma in practice, with case studies throughout.

    What is the DMAIC methodology?

    DMAIC stands for Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control. It is the structured Six Sigma roadmap for improving existing processes. The course walks you through what happens in each phase and how the phases connect from problem to sustained solution.

    Which Six Sigma tools will I learn about?

    You will gain awareness of tools such as SIPOC, process maps, fishbone diagrams, Pareto charts, control charts, and process capability. The goal is to understand what each tool is for within a project, not to use them at practitioner depth.

    What Six Sigma roles are explained?

    The course explains the Six Sigma role hierarchy: Champion, Master Black Belt, Black Belt, Green Belt, and Yellow Belt, plus the process owner. You will see how each role contributes and where you fit as someone who supports improvement work.

    What is Lean Six Sigma and is it covered?

    Yes. Lean Six Sigma combines Lean, which improves speed and removes waste, with Six Sigma, which reduces variation and defects. The course shows how the two work together and how organizations deploy and sustain improvement programs.

    Enrollment

    How long is the course?

    The program runs for one day, a total of eight hours. It can be delivered as a single full day or as two half-day sessions, covering all six modules with discussion and case study exercises throughout.

    What delivery formats are available?

    The course is available as live online (virtual instructor-led) training, in-person classroom training, and corporate on-site delivery for teams. Choose the format that best fits your schedule, or ask an advisor which option suits your group.

    How do I enroll in the course?

    You can enroll through the Invensis Learning website or the enquiry form. Choose your preferred format and dates, complete your booking, and you will receive access to schedules, courseware, and learning resources. See upcoming schedules to get started.

    Can I take the course online?

    Yes. The course is offered online as live virtual instructor-led training, so you can join from anywhere with a trainer leading the session in real time. Classroom and on-site options are also available for those who prefer them.

    Can I reschedule my booking to another batch?

    Yes. Flexible options let you reschedule or transfer to another batch where available. Contact our support team ahead of your session and we will help you move to a date that works better for you.
