Just got my Master Black Belt after several years of thinking about it. 1. The 'Fast-Track' Endorsement: "I thought I was years away from my MBB, but SSD Global actually looked at my career history and projects. They gave me credit for what I already knew, saving me months of redundant training and thousands of dollars." 2. The 'Career Catalyst' Endorsement: "The 'Finish What You Started' program was a lifesaver. I had an incomplete Black Belt from years ago that I thought was useless. SSD Global helped me bridge the gap and leapfrog straight into my Master Black Belt certification." 3. The 'Quality & Convenience' Endorsement: "Don't let the 'online' tag fool you--the LIVE Zoom sessions are intense and high-energy. It's the best price I've seen in years for an accredited program that actually respects your time and prior experience." read more

After three failed attempts at passing my LSS black belt, I finally found a provider who helped me understand why the exam was so hard for me. I took advantage of SSD Global's finish what you start program.. the first encouraging thing is that my projects that I had done work critique and I was given incredible feedback. Second thing that happened was that I was exposed to a A class with LSS Green Belts attending. I was encouraged to give them guidance and encourage encouragement. This serve is a valuable refresher, but it also reminded me of all the knowledge I had gained. Once I understood the problem that I was having with the exam I passed it with flying colors.. thank you Dr. Stern and thank you SSD Global for making a dream come true. read more

12 of us just finished a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt workshop today! Although there are two more phases we all have to go through before we can graduate, we were all impressed. I was elected to write the review because I have a Yelp account and because after sulking for a year I was invited back to attend. I'm more than grateful. Great interactive workshop! High-tech live Zoom instruction - Emphasizes the seamless virtual platform with interactive features Exceptional instructor - Describes how the class adored the instructor's teaching style and expertise Outstanding company - Praises the company's professionalism and commitment to quality Practical value - Shows real-world application and career benefits read more

I highly recommend the Lean Six Sigma training program at SSD Global Solutions. After earning my Yellow Belt through Dr. Terra Vanzant Stern's IT Pro TV videos and my Green Belt at TVA, I completed both my Black and Master Black Belt certifications with SSD. Having struggled with other vendors, SSD's clear instruction, practical approach, and their "Finish What You Started" program made all the difference--I could transfer previous credits and experience. Special thanks to Dr. Stern for excellent teaching and to David Williams for his valuable mentorship. I hope to take the LAPM - Lean and Agile Project Management next Summer. read more

I'd like to write about the class that just finished up last Friday. We did it LIVE on Zoom with Dr. Terra Vanzant Stern and are now entering Phase II where we study for the test. Class was amazing and I learned a lot. One of the programs is allowing me to count work I did prior to enrolling to count towards my LSS Black Belt certification. This certification will be achieved in the next six weeks. The class was fast-paced. They have three phases. Phase I is the workshop. Phase II you study and take the test. Phase III is all about doing the project. A mentor helps you. Looking forward to continuing. read more

I took the on-line LIVE instruction where you can both hear and see the instructor. It was awesome. There were three parts to the workshop. Part One was 3 Days for the Lean Six Sigma Green Belt - then you do independent self paced stuff with a mentor. I learned so much the first day I just wanted to go home and play with my new toys. They give a lot of stuff away in the class and you don't have to get through the whole program to use the tools. Lean Six Sigma is a great program anyway- much better than the Six Sigma straight stuff that I learned 10 years ago. The instructor cares, read more

Just got my ASM! I Got my LSS Yellow Belt through SSD Global and decided to try my luck at the Agile Scrum Master workshop. But since the test covers both the Agile Scrum Master and the Agile Project Manager I decide to take the APM. I had a lot of fun in class and met very nice people. Dr. Stern is a great instructor and encouraged us all to be "our own network" so I'm happy to have 12 new friends. I love the conversational style of the workshop. Both classes were Live on Zoom and very interactive and engaging. read more

Just got my Lean Six Sigma Black Belt. I did the Finish What You Started program, and although it still took me 2 months to complete because I had to finish one of my projects and do a student mentoring assignment, it was so much better than starting over. I used a different provider before coming to the Finish What You Started program, and I had many false starts. Thanks to Dr. Stern and her staff, I managed to get organized and write a professional narrative that I think will also help me to get a job. read more

Whether you are looking to learn Lean Six Sigma or achieve your LSS belts, I would highly recommend SSD Global Solutions. My Green Belt course was taught by a Master Black Belt with a PhD, PMP, published author and board member for ASQ. Dr. Stern and Dr. Ramsey were both awesome instructors and very supportive. Earning my Green Belt certification has opened up some amazing job opportunities. I am looking forward to taking their Master Black Belt class. Thank you SSD Global! read more

I took my LSS Black Belt via SSD Global Solutions and have returned to take my Master Black Belt. The course work is excellent and there is a lot of interaction in the program. Although the classes are on Zoom they are interactive and very stimulating. This option, for me, was less expensive than ASQ and other alternatives plus I'll soon be a published author since that is one of the assignments in this program. read more

I have probably taken every class SSD Global has to offer: Lean Six Sigma Yellow, Green, Black and more recently LSS Master Black Belt. I have to say my favorite so far has been the LAPM workshop: Lean and Agile Project Management. I took a class although they also do this particular workshop 1:1. As a PMP, the LAPM workshop was a great way to understand the different project management approaches. read more

Just received my Agile Scrum Master certificate from SSD Global Solutions. Last year I received my LSS Master Black Belt. This was a fast and fun course just like it was promised. The workshop was 2-days and then I was given the test prep, templates, a book and the opportunity to take the test online. This was something I have been meaning to do for some time. SSD Global made it simple. read more

I just earned my LSS Green Belt and plan to go for my LSS Black Belt next. Through the Finish What You Started program, I earned credit for a Lean Six Sigma project I completed last year. I had a personal mentor and a tutor for the test as I'm a terrible test taker. All of this was included so I'm very grateful to SSD and Dr. Stern who was the advisor to my program. read more
