What You're Actually Earning
A globally recognized ASQ® credential — not just a training certificate
It's important to understand the two-part path: 3FOLD's course prepares you and issues a course completion certificate. The CSSGB® credential itself is a separate, official qualification issued only by ASQ®, after you register for and pass the ASQ exam independently.

The 3FOLD Advantage
Why Choose ASQ® Certification Over Easier Alternatives?
Not all Six Sigma credentials are created equal. Here's what sets ASQ®'s CSSGB® — and 3FOLD's preparation for it — apart.

Body-of-Knowledge Aligned
Every module maps directly to ASQ's published CSSGB® Body of Knowledge, not a generic Six Sigma overview.

How many questions are on the CSSGB exam?
The exam has 110 multiple-choice questions total — 100 scored and 10 unscored pretest questions — with a duration of 4 hours and 18 minutes, delivered by computer through ASQ’s testing partner Prometric, at a test center or via remote proctoring.

How is a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt different from a Six Sigma Green Belt?
There is no difference in the context of ASQ certification. ASQ integrates both Lean and Six Sigma principles into a single Body of Knowledge, while maintaining the classical title "Six Sigma" and including Lean tools such as value stream mapping, 5S, JIT and waste elimination.
What is the difference between Green Belt and Black Belt?
A Black Belt is expected to lead full Six Sigma projects and must submit a signed affidavit for one completed project (or two affidavits if the experience requirement is met through projects). A Green Belt builds a strong foundation and typically supports project execution and data analysis under a Black Belt's guidance — a natural entry point before advancing to Black Belt.
ASQ® certification — not a makeshift alternative. ASQ has set the industry standard for quality credentials since 1946. Unlike informal vendor-only programs, CSSGB® is employer-validated and internationally respected.See why it matters →
