How it works
Our virtual certification program provides a mix of learning experiences. Before the first virtual class, we’ll give you access to online learning modules you can complete at your own pace. This self-guided instruction will provide the foundation for the classes that follow.
Six Sigma Master Black Belt, Drew Butler, will then provide five progressive classroom sessions, where you and your fellow students will learn the fundamentals of process improvements: the methods, the tools, and the metrics involved.
HKPO certification requires you to complete a project of your choosing. This provides valuable hands-on experience in applying the Six Sigma process and methods you will learn during the classroom instruction. Our Six Sigma Black Belts will also provide personal mentoring along the way, with three Group Mentoring sessions to be scheduled during the weeks of classroom instruction.
The final step is the Certification Exam, where you will demonstrate what you’ve learned and celebrate your achievement. After successfully passing the exam, you’ll be an HKPO-Certified Lean Six Sigma Green Belt!

· 5 Virtual classroom sessions led by a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt
