Target Audience and Program Coordination
A senior official from IIT ISM stated that the program is also highly relevant for government administrators involved with mining operations, scientists, and research scholars. The training will be coordinated by Prof. Subhashis Chatterjee and Prof. S. Kundu from the Department of Mathematics & Computing.
The official further explained that Six Sigma’s primary goal is to achieve near-perfection in quality by reducing defects to fewer than 3 to 4 per million opportunities. This approach not only eliminates errors but also boosts productivity, increases customer satisfaction, improves cost efficiency, and enhances employee engagement.

Program Structure and Certification
The training will go beyond traditional lectures, incorporating activity-based learning, problem-solving sessions, case studies, and interactive discussions. Special emphasis will be placed on applying Six Sigma tools in real-world industrial scenarios.

Participants who fulfill the program requirements—such as scoring at least 60% in the final assessment and submitting a project summary—will receive a Six Sigma Green Belt certification, validating their expertise in this quality management methodology.
