Six Sigma green belt certification

Six Sigma green belt certification

Six Sigma green belt certification- Comprehensive training and exam preparation to achieve Certification with the International Association of Six Sigma Certification (IASSC) – the most highly regarded independent global Certification.

This course is very comprehensive and doesn’t require any other pre-requisite training. You will learn the foundation skills and develop up to the Advanced level as part of this intensive 3-day course. However, this training does move quickly and covers a lot of in-depth information in great detail.

For participants focused on Certification preparation, it is important to know that the IASSC Global Certification is exam based. Which means you can sit the exam and become certified as soon as you have successfully passed the exam which is based on global benchmarks. Our Lean Six Sigma Training courses are run by Lean Six Sigma experts.
