Phil and his team at Lean Alaska provided world class training! They were extremely accommodating to busy schedules.The Lean Alaska approach to Lean Six Concepts is real world and extremely applicable to all job levels. I would challenge anyone to find to a more complete training methodology.

Lean Alaska is an excellent resource for anyone looking for Lean Six Sigma training whether it is a white, yellow, green, or black belt. I first completed a green belt and progressed to black belt training within a few months. Although based out of Alaska, Mr. Ranck will come to your location or work with you on conducting the training via video conferencing software on your schedule. The training is organized and built with the learner in mind; there is plenty of time for questions and review. Additionally, Mr. Ranck records the training for further review later if you choose. And after you complete the training, you are always welcome to request to sit in on classes in the future as a refresher! Mr. Ranck has an extensive background in continuous process improvement and his level of customer service is incredible. The green and black belts were both excellent training and set me up to continue to learn and improve for the long term. I highly recommend Lean Alaska for Lean Six Sigma training!

I recently completed the LEAN Alaska Lean Six Sigma Green Belt course and it was an extremely valuable learning experience. The course material was comprehensive and well-organized, and the instructors were knowledgeable and supportive. One of the most valuable aspects of the course was the emphasis on practical application. We were given the opportunity to work on real-world projects and apply the tools and techniques we learned in class to these projects. This allowed us to see the immediate impact of Lean Six Sigma and how it can be used to improve processes and increase efficiency. I also appreciated the emphasis on teamwork and collaboration. The course was very interactive and we were encouraged to work together and share ideas and solutions. This helped to create a sense of community and camaraderie among the participants. Overall, I highly recommend any course with LEAN Alaska to anyone looking to improve their skills and advance their career. It was a challenging and rewarding experience that has already had a significant impact on my professional development. Thank you Phil Ranck and the entire LEAN Alaska team!

The Lean Alaska team has built an environment that supports understanding and growth, in both Lean Six Sigma and communication. They’re responsive, flexible and willing to support the individual student, always identifying a way to thoroughly communicate systems and processes. I am thankful not only for having had the opportunity to learn but to be welcomed into a community that will facilitate continual growth in business and in life. Thanks Lean Alaska!

I attribute my successful transition from Active-Duty military largely to Lean Alaska. One year before the end of my active service I knew that I would need meaningful certifications and training to better pivot my military role into the civilian workplace. I asked for help on a military forum and Phil reached out to me personally. He recommended that I investigate project management certifications and review what careers in that space look like. With his program and mentorship, I was able to achieve my LSSBB certification and secure an extremely competitive job in the financial industry upon my return home. I would recommend his course to anyone looking to gain knowledge and certification in the project management and lean environments.
