The UTS Green Belt Certification program offers a hands-on, self-driven, and coached certification program for Lean Six Sigma Green Belt participants, who are keen to have formal recognition of their ability to devise and execute an actual small-scale improvement project within their current organisation.

About this course

Following successful completion of the theory-based Green Belt short course, participants looking to put their learning to practice and receive formal recognition of their professional undertakings and achievements, are eligible to enrol in our Green Belt Certification program. 

The program is an entirely self-driven and hands-on experience that focuses on coaching eligible participants through a real-time improvement project, in which they are tasked to work within the scope of their current employer or organisation.

Our UTS Green Belt Certification Program is considered to be stage one of the Black Belt Program, during which all the foundational skills for a black belt are established. Green Belt level projects build on the idea raised in the Green Belt short course - that improvement work is the continuum of complexity raised from the ‘Just-Do-It’ scenario. The projects involve the full application of the Lean Six Sigma methodology and begin the process of dealing with more complex situations, without taking on a Black Belt-level project (with application of the full improvement plan, the cycles, the phases, the practice of change management and so on.)

Lean Six Sigma program structure

A certificate of attendance will be awarded to all participants. Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Certification is the third step in a progressive program of six sigma training, and each program must be completed before progressing onto the next as follows:

Additional course information

Course outline

Upon acceptance into the program, you will receive detailed information about assessment criteria and the certification process. The improvement plan must be conducted with approval from a sponsor within your workplace.

From here, you will work through each stage of your improvement project in real time, producing the relevant documentation and evidence of progress at each stage of the project. You will need to share this with your Master Black Belt coach throughout, in order to receive feedback on your work.

At the end of the project, you are to submit a completed report with your project portfolio, which will be used for certification assessment. Satisfactory completion of all requirements will reward you with the Green Belt Certification.

The Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Certification program fee includes:

  • Written feedback on the sponsor-approved and sponsor-signed improvement plan proposal
  • Four, one-hour coaching sessions conducted by telephone, web-chat or face-to-face, with the timing and method dependent on mutual availability, and
  • Assessment of one completed improvement project portfolio, complying with certification guidelines.

It is possible to complete the certification process within two to three months and it must be completed within a maximum timeframe of 12 months.  

Course learning objectives

Upon successful completion of this course, you should have:

  • Strengthened your knowledge and practical application of the overall methodology and planning tools
