Why international certification really matters

In today’s organizations, improvement initiatives rarely stay local.
Professionals are expected to:

  • collaborate across countries and cultures
  • align with globally accepted standards
  • demonstrate consistent competence, not just local recognition

An international certification provides a common language and level of rigor, but only when it is delivered and applied correctly.

Certification alone creates knowledge.
Credibility comes from how that certification is applied in practice.

International standards, applied with consistency

Smartway Consulting delivers certifications aligned with ILSSI (International Lean Six Sigma Institute) standards, ensuring:

  • consistency of methodology
  • international recognition
  • alignment with global best practices

ILSSI standards define what good looks like.
Our role is to ensure those standards are applied correctly in real organizational contexts, not reduced to exam preparation.
