(Mountain Home: Denver, CO) -- Mountain Home Training and Consulting Inc., a provider of continuous process improvement (CPI) training and certification, has shaken up their own industry during the last six months with some innovative approaches to the way they do business. It started with a decision to offer their on-demand lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt (LSS Fundamentals) course for free.

“The reason we made this offer is we felt that providing this type of training is a way for us to do our part in today’s uncertain economy," says Watts.

Rarely do you get an opportunity to do something significant to help your customers and grow your business.”
