Reviews
It was quit interesting and valuable! Several mathematical guidelines to apply to define the issue, measure and test the issues.
Great course, difficult topics explained in a step-by-step way with great pedagogy making it easier to grasp the knowledge.
Course is interesting but I felt if there are more examples in the quiz, it would be more challenging.
"The Green Belt Specialization is a Great Learning, however it would be good if there is one more course on black belt or master black belt"
