Independent Faculty-Mentored Project
Upon completion of the certificate series course material, you will work one on one with a mentor—either in your organization or with an assigned faculty member from the University of Wisconsin-Madison—to identify an improvement project at your organization. This will be your independent project, which you must complete as the last step in becoming Six Sigma Green Belt certified. You will apply tools and concepts introduced in the classroom to your project. Once the project is complete, you will report out to the important stakeholders. You will then have completed all of the requirements of the Six Sigma Green Belt certification through the University of Wisconsin- Madison and become one of over 300,000 people worldwide who call themselves alumni of the university.
