Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Online Training
These instructor-supported online training courses, reviewed and approved by ASQ, use the D-M-A-I-C methodology to cover the general knowledge of the theory, composition and implementation of a Lean Six Sigma initiative. For Certification please see our Blended Learning Courses.
In these courses of study, you will also become proficient in all of the analytical tools necessary to define, measure, analyze, improve, and control Black Belt improvement projects, including the design and analysis of general and fractional factorial experiments. You will learn team leadership and project management skills. In short, as a Black Belt you will master the skills necessary to lead a complex process improvement project that produces bottom-line results.

Interactive Online Course
This course is powered by MoreSteam and it is delivered on-demand in a highly interactive and practice-oriented environment, with instructor support and world class instructional design. Learning sessions may be started and stopped at any point - content is delivered on-demand according to your schedule. These are just a few of the benefits of high-quality, online (or Web-based) learning.
Students access the training through the BLI University Portal. Each course includes an introductory orientation film and a left-side navigation bar with a course map. As you work through the training, a status section on the course map denotes the current lesson and the lessons that have already been viewed. Also included on each page are links to the discussion forum, the MoreSteam toolbox, online resources, templates, instructor support, the SigmaPedia online Lean Six Sigma encyclopedia, and more.
The courses are conveniently divided into sessions, which are collections of related lessons. All course sessions use a mix of multimedia to present material, including text, synchronized audio slide shows, diagrams, charts, audio lectures, and simulations. We provide links to outside research resources to help you explore chosen subjects in greater detail. Each session ends with a quiz. All course material is available online, and the course is instructor supported if you need help.
A Black Belt project is not necessary for this training, but it is required for certification. We strongly suggest that students should accompany the coursework with a meaningful project. This will significantly enhance the learning experience because concepts and tools can be practiced on a real-world project as you complete the course. Please see our Blended Learning Courses for Certification.
Why Choose Online Training Classes?
There are many reasons why you should consider e-Learning, especially in comparison with the more traditional instructor-led format.
- Online learning has a lower cost, both directly and indirectly.
With online learning, you eliminate travel and materials expenses (for you or your trainer) and make best use of natural business downtime. Online training brings the knowledge directly to you, no matter where your location. - MoreSteam emphasizes practice, helping students to shift from competence to confidence.
MoreSteam's courses are not PowerPoint slides adapted to an online environment. Our classes are based on adult learning best practices and feature interactive exercises, quizzes, and simulations. Mixed media repeats the same message in different formats to stimulate student interest and aid retention and reflection. - Content-on-demand allows you complete scheduling flexibility.
In e-Learning, you control the pace of action. Studies of adult learning indicate that control by the student enhances the learning experience. You can optimize the time investment by skipping sections with familiar content, and spending more time on more difficult material. Lessons can be revisited as required, and you can choose whether or not to explore the optional materials.
Online training offers many advantages over traditional instructor-led training. Motivated adult professionals find that lean Six Sigma e-Learning is:
| Flexible | Content-on-Demand allows the student complete scheduling flexibility to start or stop the course at any time. The course can be taken in small pieces to aid retention. |
| Economical | Online learning has a lower cost, both directly and indirectly. Travel expenses are eliminated, and natural business downtime can be utilized. |
| Accessible | Online content is accessible for review as applications arise. Lessons can be revisited as required. |
| Focused | Students can leverage the time investment by skipping sections with familiar content, and spending more time on more difficult material. |
| Controlled | The student controls the pace of action. Studies of adult learning indicate that control by the student enhances the learning experience. |
| Just-In-Time | With e-Learning, students can acquire skills close to the time those skills will be needed and will not need to re-train on forgotten tools or techniques. |
| Responsive | Online quizzes provide immediate feedback. Students can review quiz results and retry exercises whenever they wish. |
| Interactive | Virtual Discussion forum simulates class discussion in an organized, researchable fashion. Everyone has equal access to questions and responses. |
| Exploratory | Exploratory learning is encouraged by links to related subjects, again giving the student greater control over course direction. |
| Consistent | The message is consistent between all students. The variation in instructor quality is removed from the equation. |
| Engaging | Mixed media repeats the message in different formats to stimulate student interest and aid retention. |
| Optimized | Online learning can be combined with classroom instruction to develop a blended approach, which takes advantage of the best of both delivery methods. |
Online training is effective training precisely because it delivers the Lean Six Sigma knowledge that professionals need in a direct, affordable, and highly flexible format. That's why an increasing number of individuals and Six Sigma deployments are turning to online training - because online training is Lean training!
