Reviews from Pyzdek Institute Students

  • Tom, I am on Establish Baseline 6.  I just wanted to tell you that I absolutely love the way you teach this course.  I’ve taken several statistics classes in college but I was never good or confident in my statistics abilities.  Granted, I am forced to learn statistics better to understand better and improve my accountability at work, but I would have enjoyed statistics more and understood it more if they were taught like this.  Thank you for an eye-opening course. Kyle Sasahara, Hilo, Hawaii.
  • I looked quite hard at the different online courses before I chose yours – it was lucky for me that you were starting online training at that time. Some of the other course options for online courses were just terrible compared to your quality. Marko Halonen, Masku, Finland.
  • Pyzdek Institute’s Six Sigma Black Belt Training is very comprehensive and provided me a solid foundation to apply the DMAIC framework in process improvement or new capability design projects.  The logical sequencing of the lessons, reading materials, storyboards and integration with statistical software demos and assignments significantly enhanced my learning process.  I am very satisfied with my results.  Excellent program! Cecilia V, Sacramento, CA.
  • I completed the black belt six sigma training and enjoyed it very much. It exceeded my expectations. In particular I liked the assessments where I had to do calculations. The examples and the provided data were excellent. Ralph Stadler, Switzerland
  • I will be very honest, I managed to pass the ASQ exam first try due to two factors:

1. An innate sense of what process engineering and quality are all about, and

2. Your course.

Roy Thompson, Navy Chief Petty Officer

  • Overall, I’ve really enjoyed the course. I’ve definitely learned some new material and find the courses engaging. Overall I am pleased with the course, and don’t regret the decision to enroll. I’m also very pleased with Tom and the other staffs’ responsiveness and being approachable. Wonderful job there. – Bret A, Folsom, CA.
  • The courses are easy to follow and very informative. Thomas C, Franklin, IN.
  • The course gave me very comprehensive knowledge of statistics which I will be able to use in many areas not only for Six Sigma projects. Thomas Pyzdek was helpful answering questions and he provided more information when I needed it. I am really happy that I studied in this institute. Kristina A, Galway, Ireland.
  • Thanks for your time, and a wonderful and extremely challenging course so far.  I am convinced when I come out the other side I WILL know the concepts and, at least, have a good idea how to apply them. Craig A. Carr
  • Course materials were very well done. SPN, New Hartford, CT.

What is Six Sigma?

By Thomas Pyzdek, Author of The Six Sigma Handbook

For Motorola, the originator of Six Sigma, the answer to the question "Why Six Sigma?" was simple: survival. Motorola came to Six Sigma because it was being consistently beaten in the competitive marketplace by foreign firms that were able to produce higher quality products at a lower cost. When a Japanese firm took over a Motorola factory that manufactured Quasar television sets in the United States in the 1970s, they promptly set about making drastic changes in the way the factory operated. Under Japanese management, the factory was soon producing TV sets with 1/20th the number of defects they had produced under Motorola management. They did this using the same workforce, technology, and designs, making it clear that the problem was Motorola's management. Eventually, even Motorola's own executives had to admit "our quality stinks." Read More...
