I sit in Operations Transformation. I figure, cost efficiency and process improvement work won't dry up anytime soon so trying to think of training and qualifications I could ask the company to pay for alongside gaining experience on projects. Has anyone done the Lean Six Sigma? Was it useful? Any other qualifications/training you'd recommend? Asking here rather than internally as want to continue to stay competitive in the broader market.

Lean six-sigma isn’t regarded as it used to be, too many training providers flooded the market offering sub-par, corner cutting routes to achieving the qualification.

That's useful. Any quals you'd recommend? This is ofcourse alongside gaining project experience.

PMI if you can.

Thanks
