"The best assessment of any educational program is that the participant uses the acquired knowledge in practice. Even though I work in HR, I still have the FBE training manual on my desk and use it every day. At the trainings, each participant developed his own Six Sigma project. At the end, mine contained 30 "task list" items, what and how we will change.
