Lean Six Sigma Green Belt 2.0®

A Green Belt course in which every participant runs a complete project

Many Green Belt courses teach the tools in class and leave the project for later, which quite often means the project never gets done. In ours, each participant takes one problem at a simulated company from Define through Control, with a coach reviewing every deliverable, and so each tool gets used soon after it is taught.

What client companies and participants say

I'll be honest — I wasn't sold on pulling people off the shop floor for training. But it didn't take long to see the return. fkiQuality's Lean Six Sigma training changed how our team looks at manufacturing. They're questioning assumptions, spotting inefficiencies, and driving real shop-floor improvements. Better flow, less waste, real bottom-line impact. Time well spent.

Steve SmithPresident, Domeny Tool

fkiQuality delivered Lean Six Sigma training that was comprehensive, real-world, and tailored to our specific challenges. Since completing the program, we've seen increased efficiency, reduced waste, and a stronger culture of continuous improvement. Highly recommend for any manufacturer serious about operational results.

Tim BurnierVice President of Operations, Smalley Steel Ring

I chose fkiQuality to launch a Lean Six Sigma program for our Commercial Operations — and they successfully adapted LSS tools typically used in manufacturing to address Marketing and Sales challenges. The Green Belt curriculum was very well received, and the team stayed actively involved through our first completed projects. Not just a vendor — a true professional partner. Highly recommend.

Rodney NovakSr. Director Marketing Operations, Pharma Industry

I had tried getting certified through my company twice. Both times I got lost without a real roadmap. fkiQuality gave me a clear DMAIC path and I always knew exactly where I was and what came next.

Course participantcertified LSSGB

I kept forgetting what I'd learned in class because months passed before I touched my project. At fkiQuality, I applied every concept immediately — learning and doing at the same time locked it in.

My company's Black Belts were too busy to coach me. At fkiQuality, my coach was genuinely available — I never had to chase anyone down for help or feedback.

I passed the 4-hour ASQ Six Sigma Black Belt exam on my first try, largely due to the fkiQuality prep course. The instruction is professional yet warm, with vast experience, excellent examples, useful class discussions. Most importantly, the instructors genuinely want every student to pass. Their encouragement kept me focused. Highly recommended to anyone serious about passing the ASQ exam.

Phyllis Virgil, ASQ Certified SSBBIndependent Consultant

The fkiQuality instructors did an outstanding job preparing our team for the ASQ Black Belt certification: presenting key concepts to build a strong foundation, bridging theory and practice with real-world examples, and challenging students with projects to cement their understanding of the methodology.

John Lopata, ASQ Certified SSBBDirector of Engineering, Automotive Vision, Coatings & Glass Company

The fkiQuality instructors teach Lean Six Sigma in a clear-cut way, drawing on years of real-world Master Black Belt experience. The enthusiasm and energy are contagious — we had so much fun in class and learned so much that I was genuinely sorry to see it end.

Without this course, I never would have passed the ASQ Six Sigma Black Belt exam. I passed on my first attempt — and I'm now leading a team to develop design-for-quality methods at my company. The class didn't just get me certified; it changed my role.

Black Belt Exam Prep GraduateManufacturing Professional, ASQ Certified SSBB

One of the best courses in my career — and also the most rigorous. The fkiQuality instructors made a world of difference in understanding material that is genuinely challenging. I'm grateful my company sponsored this training, and I came out of it better prepared than I've ever been.

I passed the ASQ Black Belt exam on my first try. The course was well-paced, highly relevant to my actual work, and went deep where it needed to. Real-world examples made every concept click.

Black Belt Exam Prep GraduateASQ Certified SSBB

The course structure was a key advantage: 16 sessions of 2.5 hours each twice a week, instead of the typical 5 all-day sessions. That format allowed us to complete homework and practice problems between classes, absorbing each section before moving to the next. A much more effective way to learn demanding material.

Black Belt Exam Prep GraduatePMP and ASQ Certified SSBB

Every concept was taught through real-world examples — we'd see how it actually plays out in practice, then work through it ourselves. That approach made complex material genuinely stick.
