IntroductiON
The content of the Green Belt to Black Belt course builds upon your existing Lean Six Sigma knowledge and expands it with all the concepts and theories offered during our Black Belt course. The Services course consists of 2 days and further explores DMAIC projects, the many uses of Minitab and topics such as process capability. The Industrial course includes all of the Services course content but adds an additional 2 days of training. These include topics such as Measurement System Analysis, Control Charts and Design of Experiments.
The main advantage of Black Belt projects is that they achieve more impactful results. Green Belt projects tend to be focused on a single department. Green Belts drive often smaller Lean Six Sigma initiatives and tend to work with smaller, more localised groups. Black Belts on the other hand are the true experts of the methodology. Their projects often include multiple departments with several stakeholders and contribute significantly to annual goals. They hold more of a leadership type of role, rather than the typical project management duties of a Green Belt. Black Belt knowledge is more effective in larger organisations which face more complex challenges and issues.
Training variants
Attend a classroom session and enjoy interaction with fellow participants. Share ideas, learn from group exercises and discuss project ideas with your instructor, even from the first day. Our classrooms are all about interactivity and our practical exercises will help you develop your own Lean Six Sigma insights.
Interactivity and engagement are key for all of our courses. Together with your fellow participants, you will explore various tools and methods such as Push & Pull, Poka Yoke, Kaizen events, 5S and much more. The same quality as our classroom sessions but from the comfort of your home or office.
Curriculum
Elevate your understanding of Lean Six Sigma to a new level. Become a Continuous Improvement leader and serve as expert during Lean Six Sigma projects. The Green Belt to Black Belt course is the ideal choice to reach the highest echelons of the methodology.
The effectiveness of Lean Six Sigma Black Belts stems from the ability to help everyone save time. Time is always in short supply. But by refining processes, creating shared routines and by changing how people deal with hurdles at work, Lean Six Sigma practitioners can save incredible amounts of time. Black Belts learn how to deconstruct and rebuild processes, learn how to involve others in Continuous Improvement and how to improve the working standard for everyone.
As a Black Belt, you now possess the knowledge to analyse and interpret process statistics with the help of tools such as Minitab. The insights gained by using such tools allow for incredibly effective process improvements.

Getting certified
Successfully completing one of our courses is awarded with an internationally recognised certificate. But what exactly determines the worth of a certificate? We explain why a certificate from The Lean Six Sigma Company is of a higher standard than others on the value of your certificate page.
FiNancial details
The path to becoming certified as a Black Belt according to the ISO 18404 standards requires you to complete both a theory course and an in-field Lean Six Sigma project. The theory course takes place over the course of multiple days and is supported by a full digital suite of preparation materials. For the project you will receive coaching and project review from an experienced Lean Six Sigma expert.
If circumstances do not allow for a project during the same timeframe as the theory course, it is possible to start with theory only and to move on to your project at a later point in time.
Results and cold, hard facts are often the best way to justify a purchase. Our courses are no different, and deliver said results without fail. After having trained countless of people in the Lean Six Sigma methodology, our findings are as follows: Black Belt projects generate extra revenue and/or save costs which can exceed amounts with more than 5 figures. With a project taking approximately 3 months, it is even possible to carry out multiple projects a year.
If it is a course for a team you are looking for, then our In-Company options will be of interest. Our instructors can provide every course we offer as an Open Enrolment course on an In-Company basis. There is no easier way to get started with Lean or Lean Six Sigma as a team than with our In-Company courses.
Tasting
Learn how to utilize improvement opportunities and which training would be most effective for you by attending one of our Lean Six Sigma tastings. During the tasting, our (Master) Black Belt trainers will explain the fundamentals of the methodology to you, and how to turn your ideas into results. Let us answer your questions and reveal just how much you could benefit from employing Lean Six Sigma.

FAQ
The main difference is the scope of your projects. Green Belt projects are usually aimed at solving issues that affect a small part of a single department. Black Belt projects tend to tackle long-standing, complex issues that cross departmental lines. The responsibilities of a Green Belt align with those of a project manager. Black Belts carry more responsibilities and take a more active, leading role where they direct other Green Belts during projects.
The Services course is most fitting for those employed in transactional fields such as general administration, logistics, finance, HR etc. The ‘Manufacturing’ course is most fitting for those involved with mass production, machinery, factories and automation. Of course, those who complete the Manufacturing course can still carry out projects in the aforementioned transactional fields.
The Green Belt course has very little statistics content, as opposed to our Black Belt course. Yet even the Black Belt courses have designed to start at the very basics, on the assumption that our students aren’t familiar with anything related to statistics. We realise the idea of working with statistics can sound somewhat intimidating, but our trainers have helped thousands of students understand (and find their interest in) statistics. Additionally, we offer complementary courses and several videos on our MyTraining™ platform that will help you prepare for, or repeat, specific exercises.
The Lean Six Sigma Company strives to organise its courses course during normal working hours.
This is a conscious choice in order to avoid interfering with the private lives of our students and to get students used to the idea of working with Lean Six Sigma during typical working hours, and continue this habit once they complete the course.
