I took a number of courses thru the Defense Acquisition University a few years ago. I don't have my materials any more but the courses were free. You may want to go to their website and see what's available SGT Jamell Culbreath.

Yes, I took both the Green and Black belt. But alas I don't have that material anymore.

Yes. I am an Army Certified LSS Black Belt. I was also the LSS program manager for SDDC before retirement. I highly encourage you to purchase three books: Lean for Dummies, Six Sigma for Dummies, and Lean Six Sigma Pocket Toolbook (Michael L George, et al.). I used these three books a lot to do projects and develop training.

I completed the LSS BB course several years ago... What questions do you have?

@SGT Jamell Culbreath (don't get why the tagging isn't working right now) Along with the other suggestions already mentioned, I would say that Villanova might be a good source for you.
I got mine through the Air Force (University of Tennessee), but have many peers that went through Villanova University's program.
