Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt

ABOUT THIS PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATION

In this Professional Certificate program, you will learn the fundamentals of the Six Sigma methodology and Lean Manufacturing. You will learn the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) process improvement cycle and examine how the principles of Lean production improve quality and productivity and enable organizational transformation. You will be challenged to learn both the quantitative and qualitative methods associated with Six Sigma and Lean, including: problem definition; baseline performance measurement and process capability; measurement system analysis; root cause analysis; regression and correlation; design of experiments; control charts implementation. Both descriptive and inferential statistics will be applied and all concepts are exercised using online problems and interactive exercises and case studies.

A TUM Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt Certificate will help you advance your career, increase your salary earnings and improve your organization through your mastery of quality skills. Upon successful completion of this program, learners will earn the TUM Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt certificate, confirming mastery of Lean Six Sigma theory to a Green Belt level. The Six Sigma material is based on the American Society for Quality Six Sigma Body of Knowledge up to a Green Belt level. The Lean Production course material is based on the TUM School of Management course in Lean Operations The Professional Certificate program is designed as preparation for a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Certification project. If you are interested in obtaining both the TUM Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt and Green Belt certificates, please go to our Six Sigma: Green Belt Certification Project.
