Six Sigma Yellow Belt Training

Six Sigma combines a detailed roadmap (DMAIC: Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control) with statistical tools to attack and resolve your most critical business issues. Successful Six Sigma projects produce measurable results and help increase a company’s skills in process optimization and continuous improvement. 

Six Sigma Yellow Belt training is a three-day program that covers the basic concepts and language of Six Sigma, along with an overview of the DMAIC process and a set of basic tools. Yellow Belts serve on project teams led by a Green or Black Belt.
