Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Bootcamp

The Green Belt Bootcamp is the complete Lean Six Sigma Green Belt programme, compressed into one intensive week. You start on Monday morning at 10:00 and finish on Friday afternoon at 16:00. After dinner, we continue with the material until approximately 20:00, after which we have a drink and chat in the bar. The entire group stays together in a hotel; accommodation with breakfast, lunches, and dinners are included.

This training is ideal for professionals who do not have time for a multi-day training course during the year but wish to combine business with pleasure during the summer holidays.

What do you learn in a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Bootcamp training?

The training is provided by an experienced MBB who applies both Lean and Six Sigma daily in practice. After completing the bootcamp, you will be able to:

• Set up and lead improvement projects according to DMAIC
• Systematically analyse waste and process variation
• Objectively assess processes using data and statistics
• Translate critical customer requirements into measurable CTQs
• Visualise and analyse data with Minitab
• Substantiate problem causes with statistical techniques
• Secure improvements with a Control Plan and SPC
• Convince colleagues and management with facts instead of assumptions

When should you choose the Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Bootcamp?

The Green Belt Bootcamp is intended for professionals who want to complete the full Lean Six Sigma Green Belt programme in one intensive week. We also schedule this training during a period when your company is normally quieter than usual.

What else makes the Bootcamp interesting?

During the training, we will use slightly different games and exercises than usual. We assume the weather will be good and will explain a number of Lean and Six Sigma elements in a unique way. What do you think, for example, of Measurement System Analysis using a Bow and Arrow…?

The training prepares you for the Lean Six Sigma Green Belt exam of the Lean Six Sigma Academy (LSSA), an internationally recognised certification body. The LSSA certificate is used worldwide by training and examination institutes, including the University of Twente, APMG International, and EXIN. In the Netherlands, the certificate is issued by the University of Twente and is worth 5 EC.

The exam is optional and consists of a theoretical and practical part. For the practical exam, you must carry out a DMAIC project at Green Belt level.

Symbol is an ‘Accredited Training Organisation’ (ATO), where you can order an exam voucher and receive guidance for your practical project.

You will receive all the materials you need during and after the training.

• Textbook and Exercise Book: ‘Climbing the Mountain’ book set (Dutch or English)
• Digital learning environment: access to an online platform with instructional videos, exercises, and interactive content
• Minitab: free 6-month licence included (Symbol is a Minitab Gold partner)
• Templates: directly applicable in your own organisation
• Certificate of participation: upon completion, you will receive an official certificate of participation from Symbol

The books in the ‘Climbing the Mountain’ series (H.C. Theisens, Director of Symbol) have sold over 50,000 copies worldwide.
