Six Sigma Black Belt Training and Certificate Program

Purdue MEP's Six Sigma Black Belts have a thorough understanding of all aspects of Six Sigma methodologies, principles, and tools. A Black Belt will become a project team leader, guiding his or her team members to a goal of eliminating as many defects as possible and making continuous improvement a way of life.

Our Six Sigma Black Belt program includes training on how to use Minitab to perform statistical quality analysis; as part of the program fee, all participants will receive a six-month, non-renewable license to the latest version of Minitab. If you or your company already have Minitab software, contact us at mepworkshops@purdue.edu for a discount code.

Please note: Minitab software and Windows laptops are required. Macs are not supported.

Our Six Sigma Black Belt Program consists of a 12-day curriculum. The curriculum is currently provided either electronically via file-sharing or via a Purdue MEP-issued USB drive. Pre-printed materials can be purchased for an additional fee during the registration process.

Participants who complete all 12 days of training and pass the Black Belt Certificate test will receive a Purdue MEP Six Sigma Black Belt Training certificate.

Participants who also submit evidence of meaningful contributions to a completed Six Sigma Project within 120 days of the completion of formal training will receive a Purdue MEP Black Belt certification.
