Hello Ankit, The authority a provider has is based on a reputation built up over time. Some guidelines that you can use for choosing the best provider are given below - Avoid providers who carry out Six Sigma training as a side business. There are few whose core business is very different and launch Six Sigma training when they have the resource and shut it down when these resources go missing. Avoid providers who provide Six Sigma training only through trainers who train as a part time occupation. The trainer and the company may not be available after some time. You may find it hard to explain to future employers where you have undergone the training. Avoid providers with questionable background and reputation. Look for genuine Industry Acceptance of the training and seek referrals. Ask for genuine success stories of participants. Check genuineness of feedbacks and (if you have a doubt) seek telephonic referral checks. Ensure global acceptance of the training provider and the curriculum. Verify that the provider offers next level programs and project support. Verify calendar dates and venue of announced programs and confirm the number of participants. You may not like to attend a program where you do not get a chance to interact with multiple viewpoints and understand multiple perspectives. Many providers do not have more than 10 participants. Look for cross-industry learning. Six Sigma is domain independent and you would not like to get stuck with domain specific inputs. Consider that you may like to switch your industry or function at some time in your career. Hope this helps. Best Regards, Shradha Sareen

Hi Mridula Many thanks for attending our Green Belt Certification Program in Bangalore and Congratulations for obtaining a High Score in the Examination conducted on the last day of the Program. Coming to your query, it is recommended that you undergo a BB Training and Certification in order to learn advance tools and techniques (over GB) that help you initiate and solve COMPLEX business process improvement problems in your role as a Quality Manager at your work place. A GB Certification acts as a first step and if required, you need to upgrade to other higher levels like BB/ MBB. As a Quality Manager, you will have to lead high end Six Sigma Projects that involve usage of rigorous techniques and hence it is advisable to take up BB. I hope I managed to help you with your query. Incase of any further doubts, you may write to me at [email protected]. Regards Shradha Benchmark Six Sigma
