Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Training, Exam and Certification
Lean Six Sigma Green Belt training will provide you with the skills necessary to work on projects that can transform a business. Our course not only covers Lean and Six Sigma techniques but includes additional change management elements that are imperative to ensuring your improvements stick. Following the CSSC accredited training you will receive a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Certificate which is accredited and recognised worldwide.
The Lean Six Sigma method provides a structured, strategic approach to problem-solving which means issues are halted and do not return. This enables businesses to reduce costs, increase quality and improve efficiency with limited capital expense.
Green Belt is the first Lean Six Sigma qualification that gives you the skills you need to tackle projects first-hand. You’ll be equipped with the tools and knowledge you need to run small, department-level projects independently, and to assist the Black Belt on larger, more complex problems within your place of work. If you are unable to run a project for any reason, we can provide case studies.
You do not need any experience of Lean Six Sigma in order to take this course.
