Our certifications have no expiration date. We strongly feel that certifications that require “renewals” only serve to increase the profits of the certification providers instead of benefiting the individual. Or put another way, a Master’s Degree in Business does not expire—why would your professional certification? Candidates who would like to obtain a more recent certification date can always resit for the certification exam at any time, often for less than a provider would charge for a “renewal.” Upon completion of the requirements, individuals are issued a Six Sigma Master Black Belt Certification in electronic form. All certifications contain a verifiable certification number, and each certification holder is added to the Council for Six Sigma Certification Official Register.
