There are hardly any products in the market that come with a lifetime guarantee. But, Operational Excellence Training Institute for Aspirants or in short OTIFAS assures a lifetime support for its learners - that too, in writing! "Once learners have joined us, it is our responsibility to give them the complete knowledge of the subject that they have joined for, and the association with OTIFAS and the learner is going to be a lifelong deal," claims Rajagopal, Director, OTIFAS. Established in 2012, OTIFAS is one of the leading personnel Training and Certification Companies engaged in personal certification, industrial consultancy and product and process certifications. Started with online training and certification of six sigma green and black belt, OTIFAS has already trained more than 5000 learners globally for six sigma green belt, six sigma black belt, lean management certified professional and statistical quality control professional through their online learning platform.

Unlike other online training providers, OTIFAS do not admit mass number of students at a time. Rajagopal explains, "Though we receive numerous queries a month, the enrolments are restricted to 25 and 15 for Six Sigma Green Belt and Black Belt respectively, as our trainers give individual guidance through Skype for doubt clearance and project handling." The trainers of OTIFAS have rich experience ranging from 20 to 30 years in the field of quality and consultancy with leading organization and MNCs such as Asian Paints, Cadbury, Indian Air force and many more. "The online program has received very good response from the learner since it is self paced. If a learner spends two hours per day to complete our online modules, it will take only 15 days to complete the courses and receive the certificate," assures Rajagopal.

Though, the company's large learner base is through online teaching method with learners from U.S., Australia, UK, Turkey, Singapore, Dubai and India, they also provide classroom training for corporate companies at their premises. "We have a very good base of working professionals from leading MNCs who have already been our learners. As part of value addition, we provide training program to learner's organization who would like to implement the six sigma strategies at their organization," says Rajagopal. The biggest benefit for companies going for mass training with OTIFAS is the availability of hand-hold training which will help the companies to generate huge bottom line margins. As a thumb rule, a company religiously implementing this strategy can save at least 25 to 30 percent of their sales.

By offering best value for learner's money with internationally benchmarked certification process following the guidelines of ISO 17024, OTIFAS is inching towards becoming the top-ranked global destination for six sigma green and black belt trainings. "We have a clear roadmap to touch the learner base of 10,000 in coming year. The partnership with international brands is part of it - not only to have global reach but also to provide the brand value to our prospective learners," concludes Rajagopal.
