Lean Six Sigma skills are becoming increasingly more crucial in the business world. This methodology will help you improve processes, reduce costs, and promote efficiency without devaluing your product or pipeline. Executive Education’s Lean Six Sigma programs take your training a step further by allowing you to complete a process improvement project before receiving your certificate. You may complete a project for your organization or partner with a different one. Applying these principles ensures that you retain key principles and know how to apply them.
Under the guidance of David Eccles School of Business faculty who are certified Master Black Belts, you will delve into the DMAIC process (Define, Measure, Analyze, and Improve Control), cover basic statistics, control charts, process mapping, and the 5S methodology. Most Lean Six Sigma Green Belt and Black Belt courses result in an annual savings of 50 – 1,000 times the course tuition.
Our certificates are accredited by The Council for Six Sigma Certification.
Is this certificate program right for me?
We offer three Lean Six Sigma Green Belt options: Manufacturing, Non-Manufacturing, and online. This ensures that you will find value in the program regardless of your industry. If you are new to Lean Six Sigma, pursue your Lean Six Sigma Green Belt before continuing on to Lean Six Sigma Black Belt.
If you or your organization is losing money or compromising on quality due to excessive costs, turn-around time, or inefficient methods, Lean Six Sigma is for you.
