Program Feedback and Reviews ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“In just a short period of time, I have learned so many things about lean six sigma that can be helpful in managing and handling different projects and situations that can be solved in different ways. Furthermore, on how to present and implement various solutions to team members. Lastly, I would like to extend my gratitude to Sir Lex and his team for their passion in sharing their knowledge in Lean Six Sigma.” – Nell J. Penamante, Project Manager at Fibercom Telecom Philippines

“I have gained a deeper knowledge and understanding of what LSS really is since we do not have this particular course subject way back college. Especially the LSS tools in which I can apply in my workplace for process improvement. Also the knowledge and application of the course in MiniTab gives me an advantage for data analysis and later on to associate in my future business presentations!” – Charmaine C. Fortifaes, Project Coordinator at ALEC Dubai

“The program gave me a wider scope and more detailed elaboration of the DMAIC technique. I have already taken a LSSYB workshop and I think is better and more helpful. Also, I could relate all of the IE subjects and even my internship experience along the way!” – Thrizha-Anne D. Caampued, Wave 1 Valedictorian

“I like the content of this program considering it is online. It equipped me with a lot of knowledge as if in an actual class. It refresh my ideas on lean six sigma and how it is practiced.” – Justine Roy Balinado, Service Advisor at Toyota Dasmariñas, Cavite

“I was able to gain more knowledge about the Lean Six Sigma that was initially taught during college. It gives me the ability to improve the current process we have at work and also to sustain quality improvement. I also realized that this program will serve as a career advancement for me which I can apply across different industries.” – Faye Caryl R. Chico, Associate at Shell Business Operations

“I learned how to properly use the DMAIC methodology in process improvement. The video lectures are great. Short but very informative.” – Adrian L. Rey, Project Manager at Island Light and Water Energy Development Corp.
