Overview

This 4 day Lean Six Sigma Foundation Green Belt programme provides a thorough understanding of the fundamental tools, techniques and project management structure for delivering lean six sigma improvements. At the end of this course, you’ll be able to lead a small scale improvement project within a department or function as well as effectively support much larger projects. Your prime focus will be on identifying, understanding and eliminating variation and waste in business processes enabling you to deliver value from the first day back in the office.

The Lean Six Sigma Foundation Green Belt course is based on 30 years of PMI’s experience and has a depth and breadth of content that can generate a rapid return on investment and a potent organisational resource.

Throughout the week, you will discover how to define and streamline a process, understand process improvement, use control charts to make more informed decisions and lock in the improvements you made with process standardisation.

How is it different from the Full Green Belt?

This course covers the fundamentals of lean, six sigma and process improvement to allow the delegates to gain the necessary understanding of improvement project methodology. The Foundation Green Belt is ideal for delegates who want to be able to lead smaller projects within their own departments or areas of responsibility.

The modular structure means you can go on to complete the extra 5 days to become a Full Green Belt at a future date. Full Green Belts are able to lead much larger projects across departments and functions. They are also able to apply more advanced tools for understanding and eliminated both variation and waste as well as more sophisticated change management skills.

Who is this course for?

Delegates representing every organisational function have participated in this programme. Many of our clients have used it to introduce managers and staff to process improvement, Six Sigma and lean.

Lean Six Sigma Foundation Green Belt training is appropriate not only for those selected to be improvement project team leaders but for local directors and any leader or facilitator whose job includes process improvement and management.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
