Overview
Lean Six Sigma Black Belt (LSSBB) is catered to a professional, who is well versed in the Lean Six Sigma methodology, who leads improvement projects, typically in a full-time role. A Lean Six Sigma Black Belt possesses a thorough understanding about how to perform and interpret Six Sigma tools and how to use standard principles of Lean.
IASSC (International Association of Six Sigma Certification) is a Professional Association dedicated to growing and enhancing the standards within the Lean Six Sigma community.
This 5-day classroom-led course is based on IASSC LSBB body of knowledge that is the basis of the IASSC Certified Black Belt Exam. The exam’s questions may test up to the complexity level of “Analyze” as defined by Levels of Cognition based on Bloom’s Taxonomy – Revised (2001).
