With changing dynamics and growing demand to achieve excellence, reduce waste, decrease defects and enhance productivity, organizations worldwide seek professionals who understand the strategic objectives of businesses, critical requirements of day to-day business and operational goals.
SIX SIGMA is a highly disciplined process that helps us focus on developing and delivering near-perfect products and services. Organizations that have implemented SIX SIGMA or those who are employing SIX SIGMA Certified Professionals have seen drastic improvements in their quality, productivity and profitability. SIX SIGMA certified people are in high demand in all industries, especially in Banking, Retail, Logistics & SCM, Purchasing, Manufacturing, Shipping, Mining, Aerospace, Airports, etc.,
The Yellow Belt Lean Six Sigma Body of Knowledge™ is an assembly of a comprehensive set of topics and subject matters that are intended to be representations of the universally and commonly accepted, minimum competencies and core proficiencies requisite of Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belts.
This well-established Standard is diversely recognized as a relevant and practical version of the knowledge expectations of Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt. It consists of the primary sections of Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control, which are each broken down into sub-categories consisting of individual subject matter topics.
