For whom

The course aims at professionals who execute projects for the development of new products, services and processes. Affinity with fact based decision-making supported by statistics and personal involvement in projects is preferred. The training is suitable for professionals on Academic or HBO level, or an adequate level of knowledge gained by experience. To follow this course you don't have to be a certified Green Belt.

Certificate

You will receive proof of participation.

The training is a good preparation for the certification programs of the Holland Innovative Academy:

Two variants: Lean Six Sigma and Design for Six Sigma
Two degrees: green belt and black belt
Two exam components: theory exam and practical component (1 or 2 successful projects)

To obtain the certificate, candidates need to demonstrate they control the Green Belt or Black Belt level of the learning objectives specified in the six sigma curriculum. This is tested through a theoretical exam. In addition candidates need to submit one (Green Belt) or two (Black Belt) successful projects, demonstrating that they can apply the Six Sigma way of working effectively.

Alternative certification options are the UvA and IASSC programs.
