(MoreSteam: Columbus, OH) -- MoreSteam.com, a leading global provider of online lean Six Sigma training and blended learning support technologies, and the Fisher College of Business at The Ohio State University have set the dates for the upcoming fall and winter live sessions for their joint Master Black Belt (MBB) development program. The collaborative training program employs a blended learning design that combines classroom instruction at the Fisher College campus and online instruction from MoreSteam. To accommodate the increasing demand for the blended learning MBB program, MoreSteam will be offering both sessions of The Ohio State University training—the Advanced Lean and Finance Week and the Advanced Stats and Leadership Week—this fall (September 12-16, 2011) and winter (December 5-9, 2011).

The unique, innovative MBB program integrates two one-week sessions of classroom instruction at Ohio State in Columbus, Ohio, and 72 hours of online learning on advanced topics provided by MoreSteam.com. The classroom sessions are independent, allowing participants to enroll in the program and start the sessions in any sequence. The faculty is provided by the Fisher College of Business, MoreSteam.com and Minitab Inc. Students can complete the online components at their own pace during the intervals between on-campus sessions.
The training program covers the MBB body of knowledge and diverse topics that include advanced design of experiments, project management, leading change, financial analysis, ideation, process modeling and the design of lean systems. Experienced lean Six Sigma Black Belts will find the program both rigorous and rewarding, with a stronger emphasis on lean methods and process simulation than other MBB curricula. Students who successfully complete the coursework can apply for certification, which is included in the cost of the program. Certification requirements include passing a qualification exam, proving experience with coaching and project success, and completing an oral interview.
The MoreSteam-Ohio State Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt program addresses a market need for serious training and certification at a price that is affordable to individuals as well as corporations. The program is priced at $10,000. The lower price, in comparison with other academic and commercial offerings, is a benefit of the blended learning model, which optimizes instructor-led training hours, and saves the participant associated travel and materials costs. Program participation is limited to experienced certified Black Belts.
