Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Training
For the online training and certification, the candidates have up to fourteen months to complete the Lean Six Sigma Black Belt certification requirements. We have learned that a large benefit of the online training is that you can study at your own pace.
One of the most frequently asked question is about the duration of completing the Lean Six Sigma Black Belt program. Typically, completion of the certification takes three to four months on a part time basis, or the equivalent of 160-180 hours of individual study. The Black Belt training program requires the completion of one LSS project or a research paper on a LSS topic. In case of an alternate research paper, a waiver of the project requirement must be approved by Lean Six Sigma Canada.
The Black Belt could be either a part time or a full time Lean Six Sigma team leader. Black Belts are involved in the implementation and deployment and are solving a large variety of problems under the direction of the Master Black Belt. Our Black Belt training will help you develop the ability and expertise to manage major strategic projects and to train and mentor Lean Six Sigma Green Belts.
Black Belt Certification Guidance and Support
For the in-class onsite training, the Black Belt candidates will receive sixteen days over four months of advanced training in DMAIC, Lean, Reliability, TOC and analytical problem solving, including detailed hands-on training with SigmaXL, ProcessMA or Minitab statistical software.
Each online certification program includes virtually 24/7 coaching and support from your assigned Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt instructor. Online training course syllabus, online training assignment list and login credentials will be provided. You will also have access to hands-on Minitab and SigmaXL training. The participant must purchase the course textbook separately (Implementing Six Sigma, by Forrest Breyfogle III).
The final BB certification exam and project review are included in the online tuition fee. As the course is extensive, all the assignments are sequenced as to simulate a real life Lean Six Sigma project and cover the material in a satisfactory manner. This will serve to adequately prepare you for the certification exam. Once Black Belt certification is achieved, you will be fully qualified to lead project teams and manage process improvement initiatives.
The certification is granted once your project (or research paper) is accepted and you pass the final certification examination. The certification exam is online, four hours, open book, and the passing score is 70%. The assignments, projects and examinations will be kept on file with Lean Six Sigma Canada.
