FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Will this help me pivot to OBM?
YES. This course builds the foundation to speak the language of operations and quality improvement, giving you a leg up in OBM roles. Lean Six Sigma is also a widely recognized certification in the corporate world, so it may also help you land more interviews!
How long is this course?
It's 30 weeks, and will take 120 hours to complete, split across those weeks.
How much time should I expect to spend on this course each week?
We'll meet for 1.5 hours each week. You'll have between 2 - 4 hours of self-guided work to complete each week on your own.
What should I expect from the self-guided activities?
These are a mix of pre-recorded video tutorials, hands-on assignments, and reviewing use cases. Expect that you'll watch a short, tactical video, look through 3 examples, and then apply it to your selected topic.
What are the capstones?
As we work throughout the course, you'll submit assignments showing you understand how to apply the concepts you've learned to an organizational project of your choice.
Once you reach the end of the course, you'll assemble these things into a Capstone presentation (a Powerpoint), and record yourself discussing your project and submit it to your instructor for review. You will not have to present this to the group or peers.
You will replicate this process for two other projects, totaling 3 LSS projects completed by the end of the LSS Black Belt.
Is this good for BCBAs who aren’t leaving clinical work?
Absolutely. We use clinic-based examples throughout the course, and you’ll leave with tools to reduce chaos and improve team workflows—regardless of your career path.
Our workbook provides extensions of these to examples outside of clinical work, to facilitate generalization no matter your career plans.
