Certification Process
The training
The training consists of a series of online modules that you will complete in sequence. Each module consists of a lesson, and a quiz.
Lessons were developed and are presented by Thomas Pyzdek and are highly interactive. Quizzes are multiple-choice and because they are self-scoring, you will receive immediate feedback as soon as you submit it.
The course is self-paced and 100% online.
A Comprehensive Exam
Once training is completed, you must pass a comprehensive proctored exam. This means that you must take the exam on a computer that has access to a webcam and a microphone. The exam is open book and open notes; however, it is proctored because we must authenticate you before the exam begins. The proctor will be able to see you and your desktop while you take the exam. No other person is allowed in the room while you complete the exam.
When you pass the exam, you will be awarded a Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt certification.
