Lean Green Belt Certification
The Lean Green Belt certification program consists of a theoretical and a practical part. You will receive a partial certificate for both elements. Full Lean Green Belt certification requires a passing grade in both the theoretical and practical parts.
Exam criteria
The criteria for examination were determined by the LSSA and are described in a skill set for each of the Belt levels. This is an overview of elements you must know and be able to do as a participant. The level at which the elements should be able to be applied are also named.

The project will be reviewed by Master Black Belts assigned by the LSSA. We recommend that the project be reviewed by an internal Lean Black Belt or Master Black Belt before submission. The result of the practical assessment will be pass (pass) or fail (fail). No score is given. In the case of a failing grade, brief feedback will be given regarding criteria considered “missing” or “incorrect. Then the project can be resubmitted once.
