Course Summary
Six Sigma Yellow Belt Certification
Improve the quality of process outputs.
The LSS Yellow Belt (YB) course introduces the basic concepts of LSS at the operational level across any industry, institution or business. The course also discusses the principles and practices utilized in using LSS in the day-to-day problem solving at the supervisory level of any organization that doesn’t require significant management approval.
Each student will bring in a project charter to execute their project as they get trained and assimilate the knowledge. Various business scenarios at the operational level will be simulated or presented to encourage an applicative type of approach to bring results within 30-90 days from day of charter approval. Each candidate will be coached on what type of project to work on and selection of the problem or area or opportunity within their domain of interest or value to their customer at work. The candidate will have several interactive opportunities to share their situation and get collaborative feedback from the class group with an out-of-the-box thinking to solutions that will be directly linked to the BITDA of the customer, internal costs (COGS) or budget reduction. An interactive "hands-on" kinesthetic experience will allow you to think and be able to apply these ideas to solve day-to-day issues at work resulting in financial benefit to your customers.
