Recertification
Certifications are a great way to enhance your resume and inform your employer or potential employer of your skill and commitment to continuous learning.
For certifications issued by Villanova University, recertification is required every three years to ensure that individuals maintain the same level of knowledge originally demonstrated on their first exam.
Villanova offers three different pathways for recertification. All candidates must complete the recertification form to indicate their intention to recertify, including any necessary supporting documentation.
Programs:
- Agile
- Business Intelligence
- Business Process Management
- Six Sigma Green Belt
- Lean Six Sigma Sensei
- Lean Six Sigma Black Belt
- Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt
