The Yellow Belt training set-up explained

Our programme is carefully designed to help you understand and recognise how Lean Six Sigma is applied in practice. In the featured video, our lead instructor and Master Black Belt, Michel Doppert, explains the benefits and expectations of the Yellow Belt programme. Below, we outline the five key stages that will guide you in developing a solid foundation in Lean Six Sigma.

Preparation

Throughout your entire journey and beyond, you will have access to our online suite of instructional videos, digital books and several in-depth full courses, found on our separate e-learning platform ‘The Productivity Company’. These materials are available to you in perpetuity, and they offer you the opportunity to revisit your learning insights at any point in time, whether it is as preparation, a refresher or just to brush up on the finer details of the craft.

Training days

Your classroom training introduces you to the background, theory, and practical application of Lean Six Sigma, with a clear focus on understanding how the methodology is used in real-world settings. During the training, you will not only learn directly from the instructor, but also from the insights and case studies shared by your peers. As you progress through this part of the programme, you will build a solid foundation in Lean Six Sigma concepts and develop the ability to recognise improvement opportunities in your own work environment.
  • Theory instruction
  • Case studies
  • Simulations
  • Exercises
  • Peer-to-peer discussion

Certification

Upon successful completion of your theory exam, you will receive official certification in your new role. This certification confirms that you understand the fundamentals of Lean Six Sigma and can contribute to Continuous Improvement initiatives within your organisation.
  • Become a certified Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt
  • Internationally acknowledged certification
  • Strong foundation in Lean Six Sigma fundamentals

After the course

Of course, while your programme may officially end upon certification, your Continuous Improvement journey is just beginning. With your newly acquired understanding of Lean Six Sigma, you are equipped to recognise improvement opportunities and contribute more effectively within your organisation. After completing the programme, you retain access to all learning materials and remain connected to our community, allowing you to continue building your knowledge and confidence over time. This foundation also prepares you for your next step. You can progress towards Green Belt or Black Belt to take on a more active role in improvement projects, or choose to further develop your Lean capabilities through programmes such as Lean Practitioner or Lean Leader. At this point, you can look back on your learning experience with confidence, and take your next steps in Continuous Improvement with a clear sense of direction. More information
