Six Sigma Green Belt Course

Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Course Overview

This is the most extensive and most beneficial curriculum for the Operational Excellence learner who is not in a full-time Operational Excellence role. Green Belts as project team members become the lifeblood of the organization and allow the benefits of Operational Excellence to become pervasive in the enterprise.

They typically develop as extremely competent process improvement professionals. Because Green Belts are part-time resources, their day jobs can touch any part of the enterprise.
