Course content
Day 1: Basics of Six Sigma and DMAIC
Six Sigma Introduction
What is Six Sigma and its history
Six Sigma principles: Emphasis on quality, processes and data
Yellow Belt roles and responsibilities in Six Sigma
DMAIC methodology
Definition: How to identify a problem and set project goals
Measurement: Data collection and evaluation of the initial state of the process
Analysis: Identifying the root causes of the problem
Improvement: Design and implementation of solutions
Control: Monitoring and maintaining the improvements achieved
Examples of DMAIC projects

Histograms and data analysis
Ishikawa diagram (Fishbone diagram)
5S method for organizing the workspace
Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) method
Day 2: Advanced techniques and practice
Statistical tools
Basics of Statistics for Six Sigma
Standard deviation, mean, range
Basic statistical tests: t-test, ANOVA
Control charts for process monitoring
Six Sigma practice
Practical exercise on process maps and histograms
Exercise on identifying the causes of problems using the Ishikawa diagram

Certification and conclusion
Test to verify Yellow Belt knowledge
Discussion on the future use of Six Sigma in practice
Participants' questions and evaluation of the training
Certification
Part of the training is a certification exam.
The test consists of 20 questions. Yellow Belt does not include statistical calculations, but requires an understanding of how to correctly apply the individual techniques explained.
After successfully passing the test (80%), the Yellow Belt candidate will receive a certificate.
Objectives
The goal of Six Sigma Yellow Belt training is to prepare participants for a basic level of involvement in Six Sigma projects and to provide them with an awareness of the Six Sigma methodology and the tools used in this methodology.

General Electric (GE) is a great example of a company that has successfully implemented the Six Sigma methodology into its manufacturing processes. GE is an American multinational conglomerate active in various sectors such as aviation, energy, healthcare or finance.
In 2023, the new 7th edition of the PRINCE2 methodology was published. Compared to the previous 6th edition from 2017, it introduces a range of updates that reflect the current needs of project teams. What are the key differences? We have prepared a clear comparison.
Both methodologies focus on improving processes and increasing efficiency. But they have different approaches and goals. Let's look at the main differences between the two methodologies.
