This program covers the Lean topics within Green Belt study. It is not complete preparation for the ASQ Certified Six Sigma Green Belt (CSSGB) exam. Participants pursuing ASQ certification should also review the current CSSGB Body of Knowledge. ASQ examinations are arranged separately through ASQ. Visit asq.org for current details.
Selected exercises in this program incorporate AI-assisted analytics to accelerate analysis, organize observations, support mapping activities, and strengthen case-study interpretation. This means participants spend less time on manual calculations and more time on what matters — understanding the process, identifying the waste, and making improvement decisions. Participants continue to apply Lean methods and validate all conclusions themselves. This is Lean thinking enhanced by AI, not replaced by it.
