Course description

Acuity Institute’s Master Black Belt Certification Program is completely self-paced (no travel required) which provides the most flexibility in completing the curriculum around your already busy schedule.

On average, students complete the program in 24 months (average completion time, actual time may vary).

Acuity Institute’s Master Black Belt Program includes six training courses, project execution and challenging practical application. Students receive superior support from Acuity Institute’s customer service team and are mentored by one of Acuity Institute’s Master Black Belts.
