NRCC offers a 14-week course for Lean Six Sigma Green Belt. The course presents the ASQ Six Sigma body of knowledge in a simulation workshop, application-oriented manner. Project simulation takes participants through the D-M-A-I-C (define, measure, analyze, improve and control) process improvement methodology. Participants interested in Six Sigma Green Belt certification must have three years of industry experience.

FastForward programs: Courses offered under these programs are designed to be completed on a short-term basis (weeks or months as opposed to one-two years of study). These courses are tied to industry credentials. Students in FastForward programs also benefit from significant cost reductions. Subject to the availability of funds, Virginia students pay only one-third of the normal cost of training. Many students also qualify for financial assistance (FANTIC) to help cover the remaining cost.
