Green Belt Certification Overview


A Six Sigma Green Belt serves as a specially trained team member within his or her function-specific area of an
organization. This focus allows a Green Belt to work on small, carefully defined Six Sigma projects, requiring
less time than a Black Belts full-time commitment to Six Sigma throughout an organization. Six Sigma
Onlines Green Belt Training provides participants with enhanced problem-solving skills, including an emphasis
on the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control) model.
The Green Belt has two primary tasks: first, to help successfully deploy Six Sigma techniques, and second, to
lead small-scale improvement projects within their respective areas.

Lean/DFSS (Green Belt Level) Certification Overview


We have found that many employers not only prefer their Black Belts to be knowledgeable in Lean principles, but also
their Green Belts as well. It is for this reason we offer the Lean/DFSS program as an alternative to our Green Belt Program. Simply put, the Lean/DFSS Program is the Green Belt Program with the addition of 1 reading assignment covering basic Lean techniques and 1 additional exam.

Lean & Six Sigma


The Lean approach systematically reduces waste in the value stream. It not only aims to limit defective products, but
all types of defective work. It identifies defects, overproduction, excess inventories, unnecessary processing, unnecessary movement of people, unnecessary transport of goods,
waiting, and designing goods and services that don't meet
customer's needs.

Design for Six Sigma (DFSS)


Companies that implement a Six Sigma program find that a majority of defects are actually created during the design process. As companies' processes begin to exceed Five Sigma, they typically hit a "wall" that requires a redesign of some or all of the processes. This process of redesign is called Design For Six Sigma (DFSS). DFSS is a
rigorous approach to designing products and services as well as enabling processes from the very beginning to ensure that they produce Six Sigma-quality products and services, meeting customer expectations.

Lean/DFSS Certification Requirements

Successful passing of 9 online exams with a 70% or higher

Program completion within 1 year (extensions available upon request)

They have a complete understanding of the DMAIC model in accordance with the Six Sigma principles,
have a basic knowledge of lean enterprise concepts, and they can quickly identify non-value-added activities.

Submission of 2 additional Master Black Belt Projects

We will occasionally accept a students past experience and/or Black Belt Certification from a different Black
Belt training provider to count towards these requirements. Those with extensive project management experience are often required to only submit one additional MBB Project. In some cases, if the Black Belt Certification is provided by a quality Six Sigma institution, we will often either waive the testing requirement or offer it
at a severely discounted rate. This testing requirement is used to measure your Six Sigma Black Belt ability and
proficiency.

Applying for MBB Certification


Those that wish to apply for Master Black Belt Certification should contact [email protected]
for current pricing and availability.

Receiving Certification
After successfully completing all required quizzes and the project (if required), you
will receive a Letter of Acknowledgment, Certificate of Project Completion (Black
Belt Program), and your Six Sigma Certification by mail. The certificate our students
receive is frameable, professionally stamped, issued by the Aveta Business Institute,
and will footnote [email protected] so any future employer can authenticate your certification.
We highly encourage that you provide your current/future employer with a copy of
your "Letter of Acknowledgment". The Letter of Acknowledgment is a detailed listing of the skills you have learned and demonstrated, and (upon their request), is the
letter that will be sent to your current/future employer for further verification.

Recognition
Our certification is well recognized in the business community (in addition to the International Society of Six Sigma Professionals and Council for Six Sigma Certification) and we take the needs of employers very seriously.
Many other courses certify their students without a serious attempt of teaching the fundamentals of Six Sigma
methodology. Our programs were designed to offer the most flexibility while still retaining a rigorous course-load.
Our students not only learn the methodology, but they learn how to reference the material when solving a problem... whether it is during the course, or later in business. In fact, as Department of Defense studies have shown, elearning is equally or more effective than classroom-based instructor-led training. In terms of Six Sigma, online
training proved to be more effective in courses of greater complexity.
Everyday companies such as Pfizer, Microsoft, and Citigroup benefit from having their employees in our training
and certification programs. Discover the difference today!
