how is the real diference among Green belt and Blackbelt0September 25, 2009 at 4:42 am #185693Hello
I do not know if there is a formal education for anyone of them, from what I understand it is more of a universal understanding for what is what. Here are my beliefs anyway.
Typical duration
GreenBelt: 6 days
BlackBelt: 20 days
Main difference I think is leadership, As a Blackbelt you probably have more education (included in the belt training) for project management (often referred as soft sigma).
For the statistical tools I think they are in basic the same, just that BB gets a deeper understanding due to more training.
Saying this a Green Belt may very well have more knowledge and capacity then a BalckBelt if they have good education in leadership and statistics, just that the actual GB diploma doesnt state that.0September 25, 2009 at 5:52 am #185694The difference between the GB and BB should be:
GB are part-time resources (typically up to 30% capacity allocated to Lean Six Sigma) while BB are full-time resources
GB work on improvement projects which are tend to be more functionally scoped, while BB work on cross-functional improvement projects0September 25, 2009 at 2:52 pm #185713For the most part the difference has to do with the level of knowledge for Experiments.

be notified via email.In our company, the first two responses are correct. I’m a BB and am fully dedicated for the running of our projects. I work with other plants, R&D and Marketing. I have a few more tools than our GBs but my understanding is a little deeper because I use them more often. Our GBs and YBs only work on a couple of projects a year and about 20% of their time when on a project.
As a BB I’m expected to be a resource for them as well as run my own projects.
