LSISX 650

Certified Six Sigma Black Belt
Six Sigma Black Belts are the heavyweights of business process improvement. They are the future leaders of your company. This program is designed to teach all of the skills and tools necessary for successful implementation of a Six Sigma project. Black Belts implement Six Sigma projects with their Six Sigma teams and generate or recover an average of more than two hundred thousand dollars per project of savings and new net revenue. Each Black Belt is expected to finish 3-5 projects per year.

Participants of this advanced training program are the successful graduates of LSISX 601 Green Belt training or those who have been certified as Green Belts by a reputable training institution/firm. Trainees in this course are required to bring a project from their company to the class (our experts will help with project selection during the Green Belt training and/or prior to start of training for certified Green Belts). The students will apply the knowledge and tools developed in class to their chosen project. By the end of the course, the participants will have created and implemented a real Six Sigma solution for their organization. Evaluation versions of ReliaSoft’s most popular software packages will be included. Certification will be awarded upon completion of the course, a Six Sigma project, and final exam performance.
