Who Should Attend?
Those interested in learning and applying a systematic approach to quality improvement, cost reduction and process efficiency will benefit from these programs. No previous training is required for eligibility to the Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt or Lean Six Sigma Green Belt program.
Green Belt
Training toward a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt certificate requires the completion of seven days of class work and a project. Students typically identify a project within the company where they are working. C4iSN also can assist the Green Belt candidate in finding a project. Participants who do not complete the project in eight months from the start of the program will automatically receive a Yellow Belt certificate as long as they have met other requirements. Students can opt to enroll in the Yellow Belt program only.
Tuition: $3,600 for Yellow Belt or $5,200 for Green Belt {Yellow Belt ($3600) + Project ($1600)}.
Black Belt
Candidates who have successfully completed the Green Belt program are eligible to register for the Black Belt program. The Black Belt program requires completion of 10 days of training, class assignments and quizzes. In addition, they are expected to complete one Lean Six Sigma project. Participants who do not complete the project in 10 months from the start of the program will automatically receive a Brown Belt certificate as long as they have met other requirements. Students can opt to enroll for the Brown Belt program only.
Tuition: $6000 Brown Belt (10 class days) or $8500 for Black Belt {(Brown Belt ($6000) + Project ($2500)}
