The program is designed for professionals with full schedules and little or no prior experience with Lean Six Sigma. It provides students with an introduction to the tools, techniques and methodologies that will empower them to lead LSS projects in their organization. Students learn the problem-solving framework for improving processes – Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control (DMAIC) – and receive instruction in the tools for streamlining production and services from end to end.
Showcase your professional accomplishments with digital badges from CSUF Extension & International Programs! A digital badge is a visual representation of skills and knowledge you have gained by completing a microcredential program or course. Display these highly coveted credentials on your resume, online portfolio, website, LinkedIn and other social media pages.
After completing a course/program, you will receive an email with instructions on how to receive the digital badge through the Badgr platform. From there, you can create an account where you will be able to display all the badges you've earned digitally. Though the digital badge does not count as academic credit, these highly coveted digital badges can be placed on your résumé and on LinkedIn or other social media platforms.
