Why Study Six Sigma?

Over the past three decades, the Six Sigma methodology has transformed the way businesses worldwide approach project management.  At its core, Six Sigma focuses on maximisation of efficiency and elimination of waste.  Pioneered in the 1980s by Motorola, Six Sigma has since been incorporated into the activities and project management processes of thousands of successful businesses worldwide.  Whether looking to climb the ladder in a project management position or considering an entirely new career path, this Level 5 Six Sigma Project Management Diploma could help you take that next big step. If the dream is to become a successful project manager at the very top of the ladder, advanced Six Sigma knowledge is considered mandatory.

At Oxford Home Study Centre, we impose no time restrictions or deadlines on any of our courses.  Study for a Level 5 Six Sigma Project Management Diploma in your own time and at your own pace, with complete tutor support provided throughout.  Course content is delivered over a series of seven insightful modules as follows:

Module 1: Six Sigma Basics  

The course begins by providing candidates with a detailed introduction to the functions and objectives of Six Sigma, along with the potential benefits and limitations of the methodology. The DMAIC project management approach (Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve, Control) is also discussed, along with key Six Sigma project management integration considerations and the different Six Sigma ‘belts’.

Module 2: Project Improvement Tools      

Module two brings a selection of important project improvement tools into discussion, along with their respective functions and applications.  Examples of which include Cause and Effect Diagrams, Histograms, Flowcharts, Scatter Diagrams, Pareto Analysis, Check Sheets and Control Charts.

Module 3: Management Tools for Generating Ideas        

Candidates are then introduced to several popular methods for generating ideas, alongside a series of essential project management tools.  Candidates discuss the concepts of minor and major nonconformance, quality audits, the nominal group technique, multi-voting, consensus-building and more.

Module 4: Project Lifecycle

A detailed breakdown of the project life cycle is presented in module four, which discusses each of its component stages - Initiation, Strategic Planning, Execution, Control and Closure.  The importance of setting targets using the SMART methodology is discussed - Specific, Measurable, Accurate, Realistic and Time-Bound - along with project charters, project resource planning and project cost control.

Module 5: Continuous Improvement         

Module five examines the value of striving for continuous improvement at all stages throughout the project life cycle. The DMAIC project management approach is brought back into discussion, along with essential tools and techniques for monitoring and analysing the performance of a project at various stages.

Module 6: Project Risk Management

A crash-course introduction to project risk management follows in module six, which provides a detailed overview of each component stage in the risk management and mitigation process.  Candidates learn how to identify, categorise, prioritise and control risk at a variety of levels, by creating and implementing an effective risk management framework.

Module 7: Customer Relationships 

Concluding the course, module seven discusses the extent to which customer satisfaction affects wider business performance.  Candidates learn how to use the ServQual model to produce a customer satisfaction questionnaire, analyse the quality of customer feedback and manage customer relations using the RATER model: Reliability, Assurance, Tangibles, Empathy and Responsiveness.

The current starting salary for a project manager in the United Kingdom is around £20,000 to £30,000, in accordance with location, experience and sector. Senior project managers with sufficient experience often take home more than £50,000 plus benefits.

The length of time it takes to become a project manager will always vary significantly from one candidate the next. While some highly skilled and ambitious candidates achieve project manager status in as little as a year, it can take others three to five years to reach the same level.

Project management is a highly respected field with excellent job security, good earnings potential and limitless scope for further professional development.  Demand for qualified project managers is expected to continue outstripping supply indefinitely, making it a great profession to pursue.

The first step on the journey toward becoming a project manager is to take an endorsed course and study the basics of the profession.  Prospective employers will expect to see evidence of formal academic achievements from prospective candidates for project management positions.

If you have no prior knowledge or experience within the field of project management, you will need to take an appropriate course to develop a good grasp of what the job entails.  It is possible to get a job as a project manager without experience, with a strong enough academic background.

Demand for project managers is at an all-time high, with the Project Management Institute estimating that a further 22 million new job openings within the field will be created within the next five years alone.  Consequently, there has never been a better time to get started.

A successful project manager needs to excel in numerous areas, including but not limited to leadership skills, team management, negotiation skills, communication, problem solving, time management and risk management.  If you fit the bill, you could be an ideal candidate.

The career path of the project manager will always be different from one professional to the next.  However, there is always excellent scope for progression to senior project manager or executive status, where earnings potential can reach £80,000 or higher for experienced professionals.
