Approximately 75 hours, including:
• Analytical exercises and case studies
• Statistical analysis using MINITAB® and MINITAB Workspace
BITSPEC Capability Transcript
Education 6.0 Performance Record
Learner performance is evaluated using the BITSPEC Capability Index (BCI™) within the Education 6.0 capability-based learning framework.
Participants are assessed across five competency dimensions:
• Knowledge
• Application
• Analytical Depth
• System Impact
• Ethical Judgment
BCI™ Formula
Minimum certification requirement for Green Belt:
BCI™ ≥ 70
This model ensures learners demonstrate real operational capability rather than only theoretical knowledge.
Access
Participants receive unlimited access to training materials through the BITSPEC eLearning Management System (AI-enabled Moodle platform).
AI access is standardized to ensure fairness across candidates; however, certification decisions are based solely on verified capability demonstrated through BCI™not on AI usage.
AI access is proportionally scaled by certification level to support increasing analytical and system-level complexity.
AI usage is explicitly assessed under:
- Analytical Depth (D)
- System Impact (S)
- Ethical Judgment (E)
Included Mentoring
The course includes 10 hours of consultation with an Accredited Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt to support participants with project development and analytical challenges.
