Black Belt Delivery
Our Black Belt programmes can be delivered as bespoke courses so they can be fully customised to your organisation’s needs. You can choose between virtual, on-site and hybrid delivery for your Black Belt certification course.
However we do understand that for many organisations releasing a number of high calibre delegates at any one time can be difficult so we also deliver this as a live online instructor led training course.
Bespoke Black Belt Training
The benefit of our flexible, bespoke delivery is that you can choose to implement additional projects, case studies or revision sessions depending on your team’s requirements. It also allows for in-depth discussions and explorations of topics that are meaningful to the organisation.
You can also combine training programmes to build a truly adaptable and bespoke business solution. We find that running a Green Belt programme alongside this works very well.
Our bespoke Black Belt course is suitable for larger groups (usually six or more) of delegates from a particular organisation, whether on the same site or across multiple different sites.
Online Black Belt Course
Our online Black Belt training allows learners to access training wherever they are in the world. The training is conducted virtually, with an expert delivery coach who brings the training to life. Being virtual can be less intrusive and more flexible for learners, but still with the same benefits of interactivity, peer learning, insights and networking opportunities.
This is most suitable for individuals or small groups of learners from a particular organisation. The training comprises 15 workshops over 4 months, with optional coaching for a work based project(s).
