Certificate in Lean Six Sigma Management: Black Belt
University of Washington Professional and Continuing Education
ETPL
Lean Six Sigma Black Belts are professional problem solvers. Organizations often struggle with complex problems that cut across teams, systems and priorities. Black Belts are trained to tackle these challenges by leading structured improvement initiatives that deliver measurable, lasting results.
This program emphasizes practical application of Lean Six Sigma principles and leadership. Learn how to define problems clearly, guide cross-functional teams, analyze data to inform decisions and implement solutions that improve performance over time.
Through hands-in projects and real-world scenarios, you’ll find out how to identify underlying causes of process challenges. You’ll practice leading teams and leadership through the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) problem-solving process. And you’ll learn how to coordinate stakeholders and sustain improvements so gains continue beyond the project. Leave prepared to contribute as a trusted resource for performance improvement in your organization.
