This blended learning initiative is a special offer to WHU students who would like to receive a Green Belt qualification (with certificate) which is a valuable business skill for supporting employee engagement in manufacturing and service firms.

The seminar consists of an opening lecture on Operational Excellence followed by approximately 82 hours of self-study to obtain the Green Belt certificate and a one-day workshop--moderated by Kathy Miller from Moresteam--where we play a simulation game.

The objective of the online course is to develop a comprehensive set of skills that will let you to function effectively as a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt.

Individual lessons also include simulations, toolsets and interactive practice exercises. Each session ends with an interactive quiz to test your knowledge.
