Course Overview
The Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Certificate is a hands-on training program designed to help professionals improve processes, reduce inefficiencies, and solve real business challenges. Participants will work on actual organizational projects while learning the Lean Six Sigma DMAIC framework (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) through live sessions, online learning, coaching, and leadership feedback.
The program focuses on practical problem-solving, operational improvement, customer experience, and data-driven decision-making. Participants will also explore how AI tools can support process analysis, project planning, and operational insights. By the end of the program, participants will present a completed improvement project and earn an OSU Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Certificate.
