What is Six Sigma Certification? And it entails what?

Six Sigma Certification is a verification of an individual capability with respect to quality competencies. It entails learning appropriate subject matter, passing a written proficiency test, & displaying competency in a hands-on environment. The written proficiency test may be given by the training company or the business hiring the training company. Typically, companies new to Six Sigma will refer to some training company's proficiency test. Companies that have been performing in-house training for years (such as Motorola or GE) have created & administer their own written proficiency tests.

Once quality professional complete the training, s/he must complete one or two quality projects and display competency in applying the concepts learned in training. Some organizations require certified candidate to complete one project in case of green belt, and two projects if a black belt or master black belt. In addition, there is no standard for what passes and what fails to display an individual's competency.

Take away from certifications… Any worthwhile certification involves training, a written proficiency exam, and a hands-on competency display of the methodology to real world problems.
