Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Training & Certification books

 

Traditionally our lean Six Sigma Green Belt course, as described below, has taken two weeks over two months.  However, Smarter Solutions now, in collaboration with the University of Texas Austin, is offering Accelerated Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Training which is also two weeks over two months. This Black Belt offering is a very viable alternative for many individuals who initially were considering Green Belt training.

In addition, the described lean Six Sigma Green Belt course could be reduced to a one-week, on-site offering for those companies who desire an Accelerated Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Course.

Prospective students may find the concepts described  in the paper “Lean Six Sigma Black Belt and Green Belt Training Objectives” helpful to them so that they make the best training decision for them.

How to Receive Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Training & Certification: Public or Onsite?

An alternative to one or two people from an organization attending public training is that this workshop be conducted on-site at an organization’s facility.  The advantage of this approach is that a team can be taught at the same time application of techniques to their specific processes.

This on-site alternative applies to all Smarter Solutions’ lean Six Sigma workshops and could also be blended with online and/or leadership training.

Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Training: Instructor-Led Classroom

Many Lean Six Sigma Green Belts who have been certified through other organizations, nonetheless choose Smarter Solutions to earn their additional traditional Lean Six Sigma Green Belt training and certifications or to re-certify with the Integrated Enterprise Excellence (IEE) approach for implementation of Lean Six Sigma.

The training curriculum is geared towards providing a firm understanding and comprehension of the Lean Six Sigma Green Belt individual roles and responsibilities of the project team. In addition, students obtain the statistical and soft skills to support and implement wise Lean Six Sigma tools and applications. The curriculum foundation provides Lean Six Sigma Green Belt candidates with an enhanced knowledge base of selective Lean Six Sigma tools. The training provides an environment that is excellent for effective adult education, application, and learning.

This Lean Six Sigma Green Belt training and certification session provides substantial financial benefit for their in-class project. In addition, the training and certification serve to provide a system in which employees are fully focused on executing the correct activities at the correct time to impact positively the company’s bottom line and customer satisfaction. With a focus on developing the project execution and change management initiatives via the IEE system, Lean Six Sigma Green Belt candidates receive practical application of statistical and non-statistical concepts found through case studies, hands-on exercises, homework assignments, and follow-up assigned projects.
