How CSSBB+ Mentoring & Tollgates Work
Most Black Belt projects fail quietly in Define or Measure (wrong primary metric, insufficient sampling, poor operational definitions). CSSBB+ fixes that by validating your project phase by phase, so errors never compound. This phase-by-phase mentoring is what transforms CSSBB+ from “just a course” into a career-defining credential.
Your Tollgate Flow:
-
Upload Your Project at Each DMAIC Phase.
- Book Your Private 1:1 Tollgate with your Master Black Belt.
-
Get Precise Feedback - scope, primary metric, data plan, analysis checks, improvement selection, control plan—so your project meets Black Belt standards.
Included in your CSSBB+ course are five private tollgate sessions (~5 hours total) and 12 weeks of weekly group coaching calls for training, ongoing support, and accountability.
Course Variations
These statistical software versions serve as valuable tools for Lean Six Sigma practitioners, enabling them to analyze data, make informed decisions, and drive process improvements effectively.
Minitab is our default course, but you will have the opportunity at checkout to select JMP or SigmaXL. This means that screenshots and step-by-step instructions in your course will reference one of the three versions listed above.
Have access to a license already? Great! If not, you can download a free trial from any of the three providers. We can also provide discounted "timed" licenses on request. We are an approved reseller for Minitab and SigmaXL.
