Black Belt course

A Black Belt is a well-trained professional who is able to improve processes, using Lean and Six Sigma, at a project management level. As a Black Belt you will normally spend a significant amount of time on continuous improvement projects within an organisation. The bulk of implementing Lean Six Sigma rests with Black Belts.

A Black Belt is able to achieve remarkable results

A Black Belt is trained to use the Lean Six Sigma structure and is able to underpin his or her findings statistically. The Black Belt uses Six Sigma as well as Lean tools to reduce operational costs and/or improve customer satisfaction. Most projects achieve both. It is the responsibility of the Black Belt to execute projects successfully and continuously initiate new projects based on the KPI’s of the organisation.

“Achieve high quality, high speed, and low costs using Lean Six Sigma.” – M. George

Who is it for?

Lean Six Sigma is for everyone with the ambition to design and manage continuous improvement projects as a project leader.

Practical Assignment

Project experience is often considered of great importance and is highly valued. We therefore recommend to follow up the theoretical Lean Six Sigma course with a Practical Assignment. The Practical Assignment consists of the execution of a Lean Six Sigma project throughout which you will receive 10 hours of coaching by a Master Black Belt from The Lean Six Sigma Company. Upon completion of your Practical Assignment you will be awarded a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt certificate evidencing both theoretical knowledge of and practical experience in Lean Six Sigma on a Black Belt level.
