The course set-up explained

The six stages to become a result-oriented Green Belt

Our programme is meticulously crafted to facilitate the application of your newly acquired knowledge and skills in a practical setting. In the featured video, our lead instructor and Master Black Belt, Michel Doppert, elucidates the benefits and expectations of undertaking our Green Belt course. Below, we present the six key stages to evolve into a results-oriented Green Belt.








  • Lifelong access to our LMS

  • Information on your programme

  • Online learning materials

Upon enrolment, you gain access to the MyTraining learning platform. This is where you can find the details on your programme, and where you can track the progress of your learning journey.

From here, you can also access your online learning materials, including a full suite of explanatory videos, digital books, and access to full online courses that go in-depth on a variety of Continuous Improvement subjects.


  • In-depth online courses

  • Learning platform videos

  • Digital books

Throughout your entire journey and beyond, you will have access to our online suite of instructional videos, digital books and several in-depth full courses, found on our separate e-learning platform ‘The Productivity Company’.

These materials are available to you in perpetuity, and they offer you the opportunity to revisit your learning insights at any point in time – whether it is as preparation, a refresher or just to brush up on the finer details of the craft.


  • Theory instruction

  • Case studies

  • Simulations

  • Exercises

  • Peer to peer discussion

  • Continue defining and planning your first project

Your classroom training will walk you through the background, theory and practical aspects of Lean Six Sigma – with a strong emphasis on the latter.

During your classroom training you will not only learn directly from the instructor, but also from the insights and case studies of your peers.

As you progress through this part of the programme, your new insights, and the aid of your instructor will help you formulate and prepare for your first project.


  • Project at your organisation (or third party with consent)

  • 6-8 hours of mentoring and support by your tutor

Much of the work in a project lies in its formulation and planning, which is woven throughout every step of your programme.

After your classroom training, when you are ready, you will set to work on an improvement project directed at achieving actual results for your organisation.


  • Become a certified expert

  • Internationally acknowledged certification

Upon successful completion of your theory exams and your improvement project, you will receive official, internationally recognised certification in your new role.

This certification proves beyond a shadow of doubt that you possess the required competencies according to international Lean Six Sigma quality standards.


  • Access our alumni community

  • Retain access to all materials

  • Continued tutor support

Of course, while your programme may officially end upon certification, your Continuous Improvement journey is never-ending.

Even after certification, you will receive continued support from your instructor, retain access to all learning materials, and gain access to our community of alumni.

At this point you can look back at your programme with pride, and forward to your future with well-earned confidence.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I enrol for a course without any prior experience or knowledge of Lean Six Sigma?

Yes! Every course we offer assumes that our participants start without any prior knowledge of the Lean Six Sigma methodology. It begins with the fundamentals and thoroughly explains each topic without assuming prior experience. Throughout the course, you will engage in simulations and exercises to aid in your learning. Should you opt to undertake a project as part of your course, you will receive coaching and assistance from one of The Lean Six Sigma Company’s Master Black Belts to help you initiate your project.

Should I go for a Green Belt or Black Belt course?

This depends on your goals and what you intend to achieve. If you would prefer to employ Lean Six Sigma on a part-time basis, for example alongside other work, the Green Belt course would be the best choice. If it’s your aim to work with Continuous Improvement and Lean Six Sigma on a full-time basis, then the Black Belt course would be the right pick.

Is a Lean Six Sigma course relevant to my career phase?

Lean Six Sigma is a methodology that one can start using during any career phase and this course is the ideal starting point. Even as a beginner, your work can add tremendous value. Lean Six Sigma can serve as an addition to your current work, replacing a part of your existing responsibilities. Or it can become a new full-time career, depending on the course you choose.

 

Green Belt vs Black Belt

The main difference is the scope of your projects. Green Belt projects are usually aimed at solving issues that affect a single department stakeholders. Black Belt projects tend to tackle long-standing, complex issues that cross departmental lines and affect different stakeholders. 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.

I find statistics a daunting topic, is a Lean Six Sigma course still for me?

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 participants 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 participants 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.

Do you offer any evening- or weekend courses?

The Lean Six Sigma Company strives to organize its courses during normal working hours.

This is a conscious choice in order to avoid interfering with the private lives of our participants and to get them used to the idea of working with Lean Six Sigma during typical working hours, and continue this habit once they complete the course.

However, some local exceptions apply. Please reach out to to the helpdesk in your region if you have any questions

Do you offer courses in other languages?

More information about our worldwide presence can be found on our international worldmap page, here you will find in which countries we are currently active and offer courses.
