    Skills You Will Master in This ProgramAcross the Five DMAIC Phases

    By the end of the program you can run a full DMAIC improvement project end to end, applying the statistical and Lean tools the IASSC Green Belt Body of Knowledge expects. Each module builds practical, on-the-job capability, not just exam knowledge.

    Define Problems and Project Scope

    Here is what you will gain in Lean Six Sigma Green Belt training, starting with the Define phase: build a project charter, capture voice of the customer, identify critical-to-quality characteristics, and scope improvement projects that matter to the business.

    Measure Process Performance

    Map processes with SIPOC and value stream maps, run measurement system analysis, and calculate core metrics such as DPMO, yield and process capability to baseline how a process really performs.

    Analyze Data and Root Causes

    Apply descriptive and inferential statistics, hypothesis testing and root cause tools to separate the real drivers of variation from noise, so you know exactly what to fix.

    Improve Processes with Lean and DOE

    Use regression, designed experiments and Lean methods such as 5S, Kanban and Poka-Yoke to remove waste, reduce defects and implement solutions that hold up in practice.

    Control and Sustain the Gains

    Build control plans and statistical process control charts, including I-MR and Xbar-R, to lock in improvements and prevent processes from drifting back over time.

    Lead DMAIC Improvement Projects

    Bring the five phases together to plan, run and deliver measurable Green Belt projects that cut cost, defects and cycle time in real work environments.

    Are there practice tests and mock exams?

    Yes. The program includes practice questions, full-length mock exams and project-based exercises mapped to the Green Belt Body of Knowledge, helping you identify weak areas and build exam readiness.
