see what our graduates have to say:
Don’t waste your time shopping around, partner with Air Academy. We wasted three months vetting other companies.
Instructor clearly has a wealth of knowledge and experience and he was able to convey to us some very complicated ideas and concepts through these examples, as well as his excellent presentation skills.
The instructor was able to provide feedback/applications for ‘real world’ examples of the subject matter to our processes.
Instructor explained the fundamentals as well as the application of DOE very well. He also helped the students understand how to apply DOE or MSA to their own systems.
The course is well thought out and organized. It provides a systematic approach to test prep, test design, and results analysis of both means and variation.
Highly recommended! The content was explained in an easy-to-understand way, and was practically applied so that you could see it in action.
Highly recommend especially if your work is directly related to designing experiments with longer run times. This course will assist in pointing out the important factors and how to go on about being most efficient while maintaining a high confidence level.
The DOE Pro and SPC XL software is amazing! Used Minitab and JMP previously, and the user interface for this new software makes it far easier to use.
I would highly recommend this Greenbelt training. The course and tools are designed to bring success to the students & businesses. The skills learned will bring value throughout your career.
The course it is well presented and detailed and well worth it to establish a base understand of the DoE principles and applicable to just about any project that requires optimization.
This is a great introduction to Design of Experiments and the statistics involved therein. Don’t feel like you will get lost, the course is done in a very tactful manner that teaches as you go.
Where I benefited the most from this course was working through the many examples that were provided during the course. The content was very well explained which made working through the examples, while the instructor presented them, easy to follow and very helpful.
Design for six sigma training
Overview of Design for Six Sigma (DFSS)
Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) is a structured and proven methodology that integrates the Six Sigma principles into designing and developing new products and improving existing processes. This approach ensures optimal quality and efficiency from the outset, significantly enhancing customer satisfaction.
Goals and Benefits of DFSS Training
he primary goal of our Design for Six Sigma training is to empower participants to develop products and services that are superior in quality, cost-effective, and meet customer needs promptly. This training aims to:
- Embed customer satisfaction at every stage of product development.
- Accelerate product to market with reduced lifecycle costs and improved profitability.
- Foster innovation and efficiency through the use of Six Sigma methodology.
The 4-Step IDOV Methodology and Design for Six Sigma Steps
Our DFSS training is centered around the effective 4-step IDOV methodology, a key component of the broader design for six sigma steps:
- Identify: This step involves defining the customer and identifying the target audience to understand and integrate their needs and expectations into the design process. Quality Function Deployment (QFD) is used here to translate customer needs into specific technical requirements.
- Design: Using proven design tools, develop new processes and products that meet customer and business specifications. This includes forming a cross-functional team to ensure that all functional requirements are considered.
- Optimize: Enhance the performance of the new process or existing process through rigorous analysis, ensuring that customer expectations are exceeded. The analyze phase plays a crucial role in this step.
- Validate: Conduct validation testing to ensure the products or processes meet the defined quality standards. This involves process documentation and identifying key characteristics that are critical to quality.
DFSS Certification Levels
Participants can achieve various levels of certification, each tailored to different professional needs:
- White Belt & Yellow Belt: These programs focus on the foundational aspects of DFSS, with certificates of completion and progression towards higher certifications.
- Green Belt & Black Belt: Require course completion, a 70% pass mark on the exam, and successful project execution. Participants often take on roles like project manager, ensuring the alignment of customer and business specifications.
Global Recognition and Professional Development
Air Academy Associates’ certifications are globally recognized, reflecting adherence to high standards. Our graduates are known for their ability to lead projects effectively and contribute significantly to their organizations.
Enhanced Learning and Engagement
- Interactive Learning: Engage with real-world scenarios and use cases to apply DFSS concepts effectively.
- Mentorship and Support: Our mentors and consultants provide personalized guidance to ensure every participant achieves their certification goals.
