Milwaukee, Wisconsin (May 14, 2007) – MoreSteam.com partnered with ASQ to introduce an expansion in its Lean Six Sigma curriculum to include courses focused on design and delivery of services. Each of MoreSteam.com’s Lean Six Sigma courses — Black Belt, Green Belt, Yellow Belt and Executive Overview — are now available at ASQ’s website, www.asq.org/service.

In addition, the ASQ/MoreSteam.com partnership also offers a Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) online course that focuses on innovation and revenue growth for service or transactional process environments. Together, MoreSteam and ASQ are stepping up to help companies in the services industries flatten the learning curves and expedite their deployments of Six Sigma methodologies.

“We’ve received an enthusiastic response to our customized curriculum for the finance and healthcare industries,” stated MoreSteam.com President, Bill Hathaway. “Our clients in other service industries have told us they would like to see more customized examples in their Lean Six Sigma training materials. They are looking to expedite learning and improve the application of Lean Six Sigma concepts to accelerate the bottom line results of SS projects.”

MoreSteam.com’s industry-specific curriculum goes even further. “By offering concrete examples and practice exercises using relevant terms and processes, participants can more easily translate and apply the methods to their own work environment. The service versions of our courses are applicable beyond the service sectors into Marketing and Sales functions as well as corporate center activities such as Accounting, Human Resources, IT, and Legal,” continued Hathaway.
