Description

This is the only Six Sigma Yellow Belt Certification course that covers all the 15 steps of the Six Sigma Yellow Belt DMAIC roadmap comprehensively, which are needed to be successful in the competitive market. You learn using a project-based approach: the Six Sigma Yellow Belt project evolves as you progress through this Six Sigma Yellow Belt training.

This course begins with an ice-breaker story. First, you'll look at differences between Kaizen, Lean, and Six Sigma, and understand the DMAIC Roadmap. Post that, you'll see different Six Sigma methodologies, followed by identifying the role of a Six Sigma Yellow Belt individual. You'll then explore the Define phase and illustrate the process to capture the voice of the customer. You will learn the difference between the needs and wants of the customer and translate voices to requirements. You then enter the Measure phase. Here, you'll see 8 types of wastes and learn to identify these wastes in a business process. Learn how to employ a data collection plan and practice sampling and sampling techniques and get introduced to Minitab. You then move to the Analyze Phase. Here, you'll look at how to brainstorm the root causes using tools, prioritize the root causes, make use of graphical tools to analyze the data, and explore Pareto chart and histogram. In the Improve Phase, you'll learn to use solution generation techniques such as brainstorming, brainwriting 6-3-5, and assumption busting. Finally, in the Control Phase, you'll look at control charts and differentiate between common and special causes. By the end of this course, you will become a complete, all-rounded, and thorough Six Sigma Yellow Belt professional.
