For the Green Lean Project Manager certification it is required, that the candidate shows understanding well enough regarding each area of learning. This is confirmed by the tests in the e-learning environment. There is a minimum 80 % requirement per test. As the evaluation base EGLA have used the criteria set by ASQ, IASSC, IPMA, ICF and other internationally recognised accrediting organizations for Six Sigma, Lean Six Sigma, Project Mananagement and Coaching. Since there are no international standards for Sustainable Development, EGLA have studied the criteria from authorities like UN, EU and different major organizations to create a criteria, that gives most advantage to organizations looking for additional improvements through Sustainable Development.
The Qualification Project can be made either in one's own organization, in a partner organization or by a customer and the minimum duration accepted is 6 months.
