$21 Million in Savings
Our online Lean Six Sigma training makes it easy for any public utility to reduce costs and improve efficiencies without jeopardizing its core mission. By empowering employees to problem solve, GoLeanSixSigma.com’s courses enabled the Tennessee Valley Authority to close a substantial budget gap by $21 million.
We tried bringing in Lean Six Sigma in the past and it wasn’t working, even though Continuous Improvement was designated as a core TVA competency. By combining GoLeanSixSigma.com’s online training with onsite project support and a steady stream of success stories we managed to engage employees at every level in every plant.

YOU’LL LOVE WORKING WITH US
My staff and I are very happy with the Green and Black Belt programs with GoLeanSixSigma.com. The material is easy to follow and the examples around Bahama Bistro are very helpful.
I thoroughly enjoyed your Green Belt course and believe it to be comprehensive and very easy to use.
We have found the resources and templates particularly valuable as we build our team and establish standard work for our projects.
GoLeanSixSigma.com does a great job explaining Lean in an easy to follow format – and that’s not an easy task. It’s what got me interested in their courses. The customer service they provide have exceeded my expectations.
As an instructional designer with 30 years of experience in education and adult learning, this is one of the best e-learning experiences I have had the pleasure of completing.
GoLeanSixSigma.com’s flexible approach to learning gives you a lot of flexibility in terms of when you can review the course material, apply what you learn and take the certification exams. This was important to our busy team. The previous training we went through was a week-long boot camp that took us away from our daily work and there was no commitment to do any project afterwards. With GoLeanSixSigma.com, we were applying the tools to a real project which solidified learning much better.
After completing our Green Belt Training through GoLeanSixSigma.com, each of our Lean Six Sigma projects resulted in decreasing steps in a process, improving quality to customer satisfaction, and saved resources.
