In a Six Sigma project, the Black Belt is the team leader responsible for the operation and outcomes of major Six Sigma projects. To achieve Black Belt status it is necessary to demonstrate mastery of the tools, through an examination and completing a project in industry.
A typical Black Belt course involves about 16 days of training carried out over four months plus a completed project. The American Society for Quality (ASQ) also offers a Certified Six Sigma Black Belt qualification.
