IASSC Accredited Trainer
Sissel is an IASSC Accredited Trainer Associate. IASSC is the only independent third-party certification body for Lean Six Sigma that does not provide training or consulting services.
"This accreditation publicly reflects that you meet the standards established by IASSC..."
Lean Tech's belt courses do not follow the IASSC's body of knowledge. Our courses focus on the practical application of statistics and analysis. We aim to help our course participants succeed with their improvements by applying the structured DMAIC approach in practice.

Project-based learning: Group Project Coaching with Master Black Belts makes it easy for teams to complete real projects and deliver measurable improvements right away.
Kure is a software for automated project execution that follows Six Sigma's DMAIC method.
Kure makes it easy to succeed with process improvements (target audience: Yellow Belt) and improvement projects (target audience: Green Belt & Black Belt).
When you are improving processes, there is often a need for data to understand the current situation, analyze causal relationships and measure the effect of the improvement work.
Lean Tech collaborates with Cenarity. The Cenarity platform helps you to analyze log data already stored in your existing IT systems.
Sigma XL
To do Hypothesis testing, Experimental design, Control Chart and Multivariable analyzes, statistical tools such as SigmaXL, JMP or Minitab are preferred. The tool we use during training is dependent on the customers preference and need. Lean Tech has a partnership agreement with Sigma XL. Sigma XL is a less expensive solution than JMP and Minitab and covers the need for statistical analyzes during Lean Techs training.
