OPEN ENROLLMENT
Lean Six Sigma projects thrive in organizations with a shared understanding of the methodology. The more people who understand it, the more effective it becomes, and the greater the results are. This is one of the strengths of Lean Six Sigma. So ideally, you want everyone involved with continuous improvement to possess Lean Six Sigma knowledge. The Yellow Belt is the ideal training to achieve this. As a Yellow Belt, you posses both theoretical understanding and practical knowledge of Lean Six Sigma. With this knowledge, you not only grow your personal abilities but you also aid others in achieving greater results

Introduction
In Lean Six Sigma, it is widely accepted that improvements are only truly effective if everyone operates the same way. Only when everyone experiences the same hurdles do improvements help raise the standards in a way that everyone benefits from them. Otherwise, it’s just another variation on someone’s personal way of working. In order to communicate, act and decide as a cohesive unit, everyone must possess the same skills and abilities- the same way of thinking. The Yellow Belt training introduces Lean Six Sigma’s essential way of thinking, and builds upon that understanding. This is how improvements are made truly impactful.
organizational BENEFITS
If you are looking for a versatile Lean Six Sigma training, then there is no better choice than the Yellow Belt training. Participants of the Yellow Belt are prepared for a number of roles. You are able to carry out improvement initiatives personally. But you also possess the right level of knowledge to act as a knowledgeable leader to other Lean Six Sigma project owners. Because you know exactly what makes projects work and what’s invovled. So if your organization is serious about continuous improvement, then the Yellow Belt training should be everyone’s knowledge standard.
Training variants
Study from the comfort of your home and complete the course at your own leisure. The Yellow Belt offers a completely online course environment, including videos, literature and various quizzes to test your understanding of each lesson. An exam is included, but when you take it is up to you. And if you don’t succeed the first time, you can simply re-do it. The online Yellow Belt is the right choice if you want to study and take the exam at your own pace.
Combine interactivity with the convenience of online learning by attending the Yellow Belt training in a virtual classroom setting. Just log in, join the classroom and get started. The benefit of the virtual classroom is having a trainer present who can help you with your questions. If you like to engage in discussions for your own understanding, but still seek convenience of online learning, then this is your best pick. No travel or parking necessary.
If you prefer to learn about Lean Six Sigma in a classroom setting, then it is also possible to join our Yellow Belt classroom course. Together with fellow students and your trainer, you will study, discuss and reflect upon the techniques taught during the Yellow Belt training. The classroom training is a great choice for those who are looking for plenty of interaction and shared learning moments.
While the classroom and online options are ideal for inviduals, the In-Company Yellow Belt training is the best and most cost-efficient choice if you’re looking to train an entire team. Create a shared understanding of Lean Six Sigma within the team and bring the Continuous Improvement to your workfloor by having our trainer host a training at your location.

FAQ
Completing our Yellow Belt training is both a fast and relatively simple way of getting up to speed on Lean Six Sigma. The training teaches you about most of the techniques that you may come across as someone who is involved with Lean Six Sigma project (but not necessarily leads or participates in them)
This makes it a suitable course for team members who are looking to be well-informed about projects, but also for managers and team leads who might have to direct people who do lead projects. When people start talking about wanting to carry out a Kaizen Event or Value Stream Mapping session, you will know how much time it can take and what to expect instead of going into it blindly or refusing to commit time to it because the benefits aren’t known to you.
The Yellow Belt course is not intended for beginners only, the course deals with the same types of complex tools that Black Belts and Lean Leaders employ as well. The difference is the usage of statistical tools such as Minitab, and such things as knowledge of the DMAIC project structure, amongst other things.
Where other courses explore project management tools in-depth, the Yellow Belt focuses on the most commonly used tools. If you do not intend to personally lead a Lean Six Sigma project yourself, the Yellow Belt is a much better choice for you than a Black Belt for example. This also makes it a good crash course for those who quickly want to acquire knowledge of Lean Six Sigma and a certificate that acts as proof of their understanding, or for those who want to manage a team working with Lean Six Sigma.
Every training we provide assumes our students start the training without any understanding of the Lean Six Sigma methodology. It starts with the fundamentals and explains every topic that is mentioned without assuming prior experience. During the training, you will carry out simulations and exercises to help you develop your knowledge. If you choose to carry out a project as part of your training, you will be coached and assisted by one of the (Master) Black Belts of The Lean Six Sigma Company to help you get started.
