Green Belt Lean Six Sigma

Flexible Six Sigma Certificate to prepare for Green Belt status

Every business has room to improve their processes and become more efficient. That’s why problem-solving skills are critical in the workplace — and it means there are unlimited opportunities for professionals with Six Sigma training to tackle those issues effectively.

Gain a broad understanding of the Six Sigma improvement methodology as you prepare to earn Six Sigma Green Belt status. Green Belts focus on gathering data and executing experiments that support Black Belt projects.
