Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Certification Program
Become Black Belt Certified
This course is for Green Belts who want
to advance their knowledge and become
IIL Certified Lean Six Sigma Black Belts.
Many participants have gone on to make
Process Improvement their full-time role, and
this class prepares them to lead cross-functional
teams through challenges that traditionally
need more data analysis.
In this class, you will learn how to utilize a more
advanced statistical software program called
Minitab® (provided at no additional cost) to
perform advanced statistical analysis. You will
also learn best practices within organizational
change management.

become certified Black Belts
Performance Focus
If advanced statistical analysis is needed to
identify root causes and optimal process
improvements, (Lean) Six Sigma Green Belts
typically ask Black Belts or Master Black Belts to
conduct these analyses.
Green Belts wanting to advance their statistical
abilities will have a considerable amount
of hands-on practice in techniques such
as Statistical Process Control, Hypothesis
Testing, Correlation and Regression, Design of
Experiments and many others.
Participants will also work throughout the
course on a real-world improvement project
from their own business environment. This
provides participants with hands-on learning
and provides the organization with an
immediate return on investment (ROI) once the
project is completed. IIL instructors will provide
free project coaching throughout the course.
What You Will Learn
You’ll learn how to:
• Use Minitab statistical software
• Decide on sampling strategies, sample size
and confidence intervals
• Describe the difference between long-term
and short-term process capability
• Measure rework, waste or scrap by
computing yield metrics
• Develop and analyze control charts for both
continuous and discrete data
• Perform a measurement system analysis
• Apply hypothesis tests to compare variance,
means and proportions
• Conduct regression and residual analyses
• Design and analyze experiments
