Testimonials

Getting my Lean Green Belt has been extremely useful in my co-op search and on the job. I have been asked about my certification during interviews multiple times, which has given me the opportunity to demonstrate my Lean skill set to employers. I've also been able to utilize the tools I learned in projects I completed throughout my co-op.

Emma WongPast co-op at Raytheon, BS Industrial Engineering

Having my Lean Green Belt drastically enhanced my co-op experience. It opened the door for numerous experiences, such as Kaizen events and 5S implementation, and allowed me to be a valuable voice during conversations. Furthermore, the certification helped my resume stand out against the competition.

Nicole ResteghiniBS Industrial Engineering

The only reason I got my co-op rather than the other person was because I was taking the Lean Green Belt class and my manager really liked that. She saw it on my resume and later told me that its what made the difference.
