Unique in the industry, SBTI has developed a training model that allows clients to develop their corps of Lean Sigma project leaders while creating an environment where Black Belts and Green Belts begin to build a strong working relationship. We call it Lean Sigma Green/Black Belt 2+2®. In this training model, the first two weeks are a combination of Green Belt and Black Belt candidates studying a shared curriculum. Candidates wishing to go on to the Black Belt level will attend the second two weeks of the model.
Weeks 1 and 2
Lean Sigma Green Belt Level
Through training and dynamic exercises, Green Belts will learn the key Lean Sigma tools and the DMAIC roadmap. Under the leadership of either a Black Belt or a Master Black Belt, they support the overall program in helping to achieving results. Green Belts take responsibilities for smaller projects, utilizing an in-depth understanding of the key Lean Sigma tools and measurement systems knowledge.
Outcome:
• Understanding of the methodology and Lean Sigma Green Belt tools
• Ability to deliver project results within a Transactional or Operations process
• Project leaders who can assess processes and identify and prioritize optimal projects
• Project leaders who will bring new Lean Sigma skills back to their work areas
Who Should Attend:
Someone with good communication skills who works well in a team structure.
Weeks 3 and 4
Lean Sigma Black Belt Level
Recognizing that the language and needs of transactional students are different, the curriculum targets these areas with different approaches and tools that accelerate project progress. Transactional students learn the appropriate tools and a practical understanding of how to apply them to a real world project. Unlike Operations, weeks 3 and 4 are broken into two classes, Lean Sigma Transactional Black Belt (DMAIC) and Six Sigma for Process Design (SSPD). For most clients, students need only attend Lean Sigma Transactional Black Belt and the Six Sigma for Process Development (SSPD) class to advance to Black Belt status from Green Belt.
Outcome:
• Understanding of the process and Lean Sigma Black Belt tools
• Ability to deliver project results within and across processes
• Ability to design experiments and analyze and interpret the results
• Designing processes and services that meet or exceed customer and user needs
• Establish a value-focused approach to work and problem solving
• Project leaders who can lead process improvement teams and projects to breakthrough results
Duration:
Who Should Attend:
Those who are seen as future business leaders, Department Directors assigned full time to Process Improvement, Green Belts who want to lead more complex, inter-departmental/divisional projects.
