Six Sigma is a unique project management methodology, which can be applied to almost any business process or activity in any setting. Engineered to optimise performance while minimising waste, Six Sigma has become the go-to project management framework for successful businesses worldwide. Such heavy emphasis is placed on Six Sigma that it has become a prerequisite in the eyes of employers and decision-makers worldwide.

Module 1: Six Sigma Basics  

The core fundamentals of the Six Sigma philosophy are presented and discussed in the first module, including the history, functions and primary objectives of the methodology. The components of the DMAIC approach to project management - (Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve, Control) – are also discussed, along with the wide-reaching benefits of Six Sigma in project management.

Module 2: Project Improvement Tools      

Module two familiarises candidates with a series of helpful project management tools, presenting examples of Cause Effect Diagrams, Histograms, Flowcharts, Scatter Diagrams, Pareto Analysis, Check Sheets and Control Charts.  The functions and advantages of each of these tools in a project management setting are also discussed.

Module 3: Management Tools for Generating Ideas        

Concluding the course, module three provides tips and guidelines for more effective brainstorming and associated tools for generating ideas.  Along with the nominal group technique, multi-voting, consensus-building and affinity diagrams, candidates are familiarised with quality audits and the concepts of major and minor nonconformance.

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.
