Lean Six Sigma uses a series of "belts" to help differentiate the different roles people will undertake during a project. The White Belt training provides an understanding of the basic Lean Six Sigma concepts from an awareness perspective. White Belts can not only assist with change management within an organization, but also can participate in local problem-solving teams that support projects. This certificate is perfect for individuals who are looking to learn more about Lean Six Sigma and continual process improvement.

A Penn State Great Valley Lean Six Sigma White Belt certificate—which is recognized by the federal government, the Department of Defense, and other major institutions—is awarded upon completion of the workshop. Students will walk away able to assist in a continuous Lean Six Sigma project in their workplace. Students are not required to hold any previous Six Sigma training to enroll.
