Six Sigma Green Belt Training Program


PQA’s next Green Belt Public Training Program will start in late October (targeting Thursday October 30, 2003, but day of week may change to accommodate trainees’ schedules) and run one day per week for the next 5 weeks (ending on Thursday, November 27, 2003)

Use our Six Sigma Green Belt training program to realize outstanding benefits:

  • Bottom line savings averaging $120K per project
  • Train Green Belts to support your Black Belts
  • Use PQA as your Black Belt to train Green Belts and implement a Six Sigma project
  • Build a business case for a full Six Sigma implementation in your organization by obtaining knowledge of the Six Sigma Deployment strategy and actual project data from an improvement project conducted in your organization


Process Quality Associates offers a dynamic approach to Green Belt training.

  • Our specialized program consists of five in-class sessions of 1 day each for 5 weeks.
  • To get the maximum benefits from this training program, candidates are strongly encouraged to run actual “real world” projects inside their organizations applying the concepts they have learned at the in-class session during the application periods, with full support from one of our Black Belts.
  • Our unique approach to training will equip the candidate with the necessary tools and knowledge transfer for successful participation on 6 Sigma teams in your organization
  • If you choose to run a project in conjunction with the training program, the optional support days available from a PQA Black Belt will ensure the success of the project.
  • This public course can be customized to suit your in-house training needs. Call Don Whitred at (519) 667-1720 to discuss your situation
