Course Overview

The Online Yellow Belt is an accessible way to learn about the tools, method and benefits of business improvement and six sigma. Delivered in a modular online format, it is the ideal way to introduce and share knowledge of what's involved in a six sigma initiative. With its relaxed and engaging delivery style, the Online Yellow Belt plays out a fictitious business improvement case study in a "soap opera" setting helping learners to gain familiarity with the tools, terminology and method without the need for formal classroom training.
