Lean Green Belt Certification: Healthcare is a 3-month on-line program. Each lesson provides on-line content incorporating real world case study examples of Lean applications, along with useful in-line questions and assessments to enable students track their progress.

The program can be undertaken by individuals through on-line distance learning study or through our customized in-house solution. You receive access to a Learning Management System portal from where you can log in at any time and launch each lesson, take prep exams, view and download on-line resources, and interact with fellow students and experts via a Lean discussion forum. Expert mentoring support via e-mail is also provided from this portal.

To attain certification, participants need to complete one workplace assignment and a final on-line exam. The assignment is worth 30% of the overall certification mark and can have a customized or in-house focus whereby participants target an area within their organization and leverage the Lean tools and practices covered in the program to initiate and/or implement physical improvements.
Having completed their assignment and all of the lessons that make up the program, participants will need to undertake a final on-line exam worth 70% of the overall certification mark.
