To remain competitive in today’s markets, businesses must strike a delicate balance between lowering operating costs and maintaining a high-quality product or service. This critical need for efficiency has fueled the demand for professionals with the skills of process improvement. If your goal is to master this skill set and improve your value as an employee, you should consider earning your Lean Six Sigma Black Belt.

 

The Black Belt, the most advanced level of practice, is the heart of the Lean Six Sigma operation. He or she has expert knowledge and skills of the Six Sigma methodology, Lean methods, and team leadership. Black Belts should be able to lead any team across the organization in executing process improvement projects. They may also conduct Lean Six Sigma training and act as coaches and mentors to other Belts-in-training.

 

Black Belt training typically runs between 140 and 160 hours and includes instruction in the use of statistical data analysis and designed experiments. Most Black Belt students complete their training within a half year and certify after completing two projects within 18 months of the start of the training program. A Black Belt leads to the opportunity for increased responsibility and recognition, improved earnings, and positively impacting the health and efficiency of your organization.
