Pretendacon

Go Back

Definition

Predatory Lean Six Sigma training providers whose pretense of serious certification is dragging the profession into the dirt. These firms offer their students online case studies (pretend projects) as a shortcut to actual project experience. The students may complete their training quickly, but they have no real-world experience to show for the cost of their course. Hiring managers and organizations generally dismiss or devalue Pretendicon Black Belt or Green Belt certification.
