    General

    What is Design for Six Sigma training?

    Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) training is a practical, one-day programme that teaches you to design new products, services and processes to reach Six Sigma quality levels from the start. You learn the DMADV roadmap and core design-quality tools such as VOC, QFD, Design FMEA and robust design.

    Is Design for Six Sigma training worth it for professionals in Norway?

    Yes. Norway's energy, maritime, medical device and manufacturing sectors increasingly value engineers who can design quality in from the start. DFSS skills help you cut redesign costs and launch reliable products faster, which is why design and R&D roles that use these tools are in demand.

    What is the difference between DFSS and DMAIC?

    DMAIC improves existing processes that are underperforming, while DFSS designs new products, services or processes correctly from the start using the DMADV roadmap. This course covers DFSS and DMADV. Many organisations use both: DMAIC to improve what exists and DFSS to design what is new.

    Who should attend this DFSS training?

    The training suits design and systems engineers, R&D professionals, new product development leads, quality engineers, and Six Sigma Green and Black Belts who want to add DMADV to their toolkit. It is ideal for anyone responsible for designing new products, services or processes.

    Do I need prior Six Sigma knowledge to join?

    No. The course has no formal prerequisites and introduces every DFSS tool and the DMADV methodology from first principles. Familiarity with basic Six Sigma ideas such as CTQ and variation is helpful but not required.

    What is DMADV?

    DMADV stands for Define, Measure, Analyse, Design and Verify, the most widely used Design for Six Sigma roadmap. It guides you from capturing customer requirements through to verifying that a new design meets them before launch.

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, with invoicing available for corporate bookings. Talk to a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Assessment

    Is there any formal assessment or credential for this course?

    No. Design for Six Sigma training is a practical, skills-focused programme with no formal assessment and no external credential. Learning is reinforced through hands-on tool exercises and case discussions during the day.

    What do I receive on completing the training?

    You receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning. More importantly, you leave able to apply the DMADV roadmap and DFSS tools to real design projects straight away.

    How is learning reinforced during the programme?

    Through practical exercises on realistic product and process design scenarios. You practise VOC to CTQ flow-down, build a QFD House of Quality, use the Pugh matrix and complete a Design FMEA worksheet as you learn.

    Do the skills expire or need renewing?

    No. The DFSS methodology and tools you learn are immediately applicable and do not expire, so there is nothing to renew or maintain.

    Will this help if I already hold a Six Sigma belt?

    Yes. If you already know DMAIC, DFSS adds the design counterpart, DMADV, to your toolkit. It lets you lead projects that need a new design rather than an improvement to an existing one.

    Course Content

    What topics are covered in the DFSS training?

    The course covers DFSS foundations and the DMADV roadmap, the Define phase (VOC and Kano), the Measure phase (CTQ flow-down and QFD), the Analyse phase (concept selection and Design FMEA), the Design phase (robust design and P-diagram), and the Verify phase (verification, validation and design transfer).

    What will I be able to do after the training?

    You will be able to apply DMADV to a design project, capture and analyse VOC with the Kano model, build CTQs and a QFD House of Quality, use the Pugh matrix, run a Design FMEA, apply robust design thinking, and plan design verification and validation.

    How long is the Design for Six Sigma training?

    The programme runs for one day (8 hours), covering all six DMADV phases with concept explanations, real-world design case studies, and hands-on tool exercises throughout.

    Are the tools hands-on or theory only?

    Hands-on. You apply VOC to CTQ flow-down, QFD, the Pugh matrix and Design FMEA to realistic design scenarios during the day, so you practise each tool rather than just reading about it.

    Can beginners follow the course?

    Yes. The training introduces every DFSS tool and the DMADV methodology from first principles, so beginners can follow along while experienced engineers deepen their toolkit.
