Lean training courses in Dubai: where could a Black Belt project sit?
Pick a process you already own and can measure.
The Dubai Industrial Strategy 2030, launched in June 2016, names six priority manufacturing sub sectors, including aerospace, maritime, pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, and machinery and equipment. If you work in one of them, a production line or a handover between departments is a natural process to think about as you study.
If your work is moving goods, for example at one of the more than 11,000 businesses Jafza reports at Jebel Ali, the flow of goods is the place to look. Map the flow first with Mastering Value Stream Mapping, then decide whether the problem needs Black Belt statistics.
Can you study Six Sigma in Dubai in person or only online?
Both are possible. You can study online, or at a Blue Ocean office in Dubai or Abu Dhabi, and an advisor can tell you whether a class can be arranged for a group.
If you want colleagues to take the Black Belt with you, use the corporate enquiry form and name the roles involved.
How does the Six Sigma Black Belt exam work?
The certification exam takes place at the end of the program through Blue Ocean Academy. The course page names the certifying body, so read that page before you enroll.
Confirm the exam rules with the certifying body, because they can change. Ask an advisor how the exam is scheduled when you enquire, and plan your study hours around that date.
