Course Goals
Certification
Upon successful completion of all requirements of this course, participants will receive a certificate stating that he/she is a certified Six Sigma Green Belt.
There is no examination that needs to be completed for Six Sigma certification.
Instead, certification is achieved through the successful completion of:
-
Classroom Training
-
The first step in a participant’s journey to certification is instructor-led classroom training. Expert instructors, each of whom is skilled in training all levels of Six Sigma, conduct step-by-step learning with each participant in a classroom setting. Participants can enjoy and benefit from in-class discussions of real-world experience, as well as break-out sessions of individual and group labs. Participants will have the added benefit of supplemental virtual sessions between and after classroom sessions.
-
Skills Assessment Artifacts
-
Students will be required to demonstrate 20 individual skills (out of a possible 60+) along the DMAIC roadmap to complete on their own time during and after the classroom training. Because our goal is to train resourceful Green Belts, students are allowed and encouraged to use any resources available to them, including course notes, texts and other books, Internet content and newsgroup sites and mentors, including those provided by us.
Of course, any organization or student could choose to do a standard Lean Six Sigma DMAIC project instead.
-
Mentorship
-
Although the first stages are vital, the most important aspect of a participant’s course toward certification is the mentorship that they will receive afterward. Through our mentors, participants can overcome challenges and obstacles faced while they are learning the theory and tools, working on assignments and implementing the DMAIC project. Our mentors are experts in their respective fields, with experience in many different fields, mentoring participants during and after certification.
