Sergeant Culbreath -
Good morning. There is a ton of information online covering your interest. I have listed three sources for you. Good luck.

1. Successfully complete the Lean Six Sigma Black Belt course, class project and pass the certification exam offered through Villanova to become a Certified Lean Six Sigma Black Belt (CLSSBB)... source: www.explore.Villanova.com

2. (Source: www.eceonline.Emory.edu - Lean Six Sigma (LSS) is one of the most versatile and in-demand skill sets in business today*. It is a methodology that utilizes statistical tools and concepts to identify variations or defects in a process and can accelerate development, enhance product quality, eliminate waste, and raise revenue. When executed correctly, this business methodology can work wonders to advance a career or bolster a company’s bottom line.

Emory Continuing Education's Lean Six Sigma Black Belt online certificate course elevates LSS with a course filled with real-world applications, data-driven analysis, and the latest techniques. Learn how to address company-wide process improvement needs, solve difficult problems, and coach project teams by completing the eight-week Lean Six Sigma Black Belt course (26 weeks of access) through Emory Continuing Education (ECE).

3. (Source: www.sigma certificationonline .com) The SSGI Black Belt course is an advanced management level program that will prepare you to manage project teams.
