About KaizenSprint Academy

KaizenSprint Academy was built on a simple frustration: too much Lean Six Sigma training is academic, passive, and forgettable. We set out to build something better - practical training that sticks, built by people who've actually delivered Continuous Improvement in real organisations.

We're not a university department or a big consultancy bolting on a training product. KaizenSprint is purpose-built for people who want to learn CI properly, apply it immediately, and earn accredited certifications that mean something.

Trevor Durant

Lean Six Sigma Practitioner & CI Consultant

Trevor has spent over two decades helping organisations work smarter - cutting waste, improving processes, and building teams that can sustain real change. As Managing Director of Smart Advice Consulting, he's delivered Continuous Improvement and Change Management programmes across the public sector, working with organisations including Business Lincolnshire, Telford & Wrekin Council, and West Yorkshire Combined Authority.

He holds CSSC accreditation to certify practitioners at Yellow Belt, Green Belt, and Black Belt level, and built KaizenSprint Academy to make practical, no-nonsense Lean Six Sigma training accessible to anyone - whether you're just getting started or ready to lead improvement at scale.

Trevor's approach is simple: learn it, apply it, prove it. No death by PowerPoint. No theory for theory's sake. Just the tools and thinking that actually move the needle.

Why we built this

The problem

Most Lean Six Sigma training falls into two camps: expensive classroom courses that are over in a week and forgotten in a month, or cheap online tick-box courses that teach theory but never show you how to use it. Neither builds real capability.

Our approach

KaizenSprint is different. Every module is built around practical application - real tools, real examples, real projects. You learn at your own pace, but you don't learn alone. Expert support is always available when you need it.

Accreditation that counts

All Belt certifications are delivered through CSSC (Council for Six Sigma Certification) - a globally recognised accreditation body. Your certification means the same thing wherever you take it.

Built for practitioners

Whether you're a team leader wanting to improve a process, an analyst looking to add CI skills, or an organisation building improvement capability - KaizenSprint meets you where you are.
