Frequently Asked Questions
A Lean Six Sigma Black Belt leads improvement projects end to end and coaches Green Belts. The work combines Lean — value stream mapping, waste elimination, 5S, pull systems and Kanban, Kaizen — with Six Sigma's DMAIC discipline, plus Lean metrics, root cause analysis and the change management needed to make improvements stick.
The Profice Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Self-Paced package starts at €550 (excl. VAT) and includes the official 6sigmastudy courseware, the exam voucher, hands-on exercises, your certificate and lifetime support. 6sigmastudy lists the LSSBB exam on its own at USD 550, so the package covers training and the exam together. Prices on this page update for your region.
It is worth it if you are moving from running projects to leading them, or into operational excellence, quality or transformation work — Black Belt is the level employers associate with owning cross-functional improvement. UK permanent vacancies citing Six Sigma had a median salary of £57,500 in the six months to September 2026, with a 10th-to-90th percentile range of about £41,200–£102,500 (ITJobsWatch). Pay depends far more on the role, sector and your experience than on the certificate itself.
6sigmastudy requires Six Sigma Green Belt (SSGB) certification before the Lean Six Sigma Black Belt, and the course is written for Green Belt professionals who want the combined Lean and Six Sigma toolkit. If you are not certified yet, start with a Green Belt programme and progress from there.
The 6sigmastudy LSSBB exam is 125 multiple-choice questions in 180 minutes, taken online without a proctor, with no negative marking and up to two free retakes; 6sigmastudy publishes a 93% pass rate. Certificates are valid for three years and can be renewed by sitting a shorter recertification exam, by self-certification, or automatically by earning another 6sigmastudy certification.
