Lean Six Sigma Black Belt (LSSBB) Training

Introduction:

Lean Six Sigma saves organizations time and money through continuous improvement. Employers therefore often pay a premium for Six Sigma trained and certified managers. Our Lean Six Sigma Black Belt training teaches you the strategies and tools necessary for leading process improvement in your organization and provides you with the Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Certification. Take your career to the next level by getting your Lean Six Sigma certification today! Upon successfully completing the course (attending all days, completing all assignments, passing the final exam, and submitting and passing the final Lean Six Sigma project), you will earn the Lean Six Sigma Black Belt (LSSBB) credential from Project Management Academy®. Project Management Academy is accredited by the Council for Six Sigma Certification (CSSC), an Official Industry Standard for Six Sigma Accreditation. Your final Lean Six Sigma project must demonstrate your ability to carry out a Six Sigma project (from creation to the final stages using the DMAIC/DMADV method). Note: This course is conducted 2 Days/Week for 5 Weeks (Wednesdays & Fridays: 9am-5pm CST) for a total of 10 days of training to allow time for review and project development between course sessions. This course will earn you 80 PDUs.
