With no prerequisites and a two-hour, 60-question exam, the Yellow Belt is the quickest recognised entry into the discipline. Start your journey with Invensis Learning and earn a credential that travels across sectors and across Canada.

    Skills You Will Build in the Yellow Belt CourseThe DMAIC Toolkit, Step by Step

    This Yellow Belt programme covers all five DMAIC phases, from defining a problem to controlling an improved process, plus the core Lean tools that reduce waste. By the end you can map a process, read basic quality metrics and support improvement projects with confidence.

    Define Problems and Customer Needs

    Frame an improvement problem using the Voice of the Customer, critical-to-quality characteristics and a project charter, and understand the Y equals f(x) problem-solving logic that underpins every DMAIC project.

    Measure Processes and Collect Data

    Map a process with SIPOC and process maps, apply basic and descriptive statistics, and understand measurement system analysis and process capability so you can gather reliable data.

    Analyse Root Causes of Variation

    Use cause-and-effect (fishbone) diagrams, Pareto analysis and an introduction to hypothesis testing to separate real signals from noise and find the true drivers of a problem.

    Improve and Eliminate Waste

    Identify the seven wastes, apply simple improvement techniques and an introduction to regression and designed experiments, and recommend changes that reduce defects and cycle time.

    Control and Sustain Gains

    Hold improvements in place with statistical process control, control plans and Lean controls such as 5S, Kanban and Poka-Yoke, so gains last after a project closes.

    Apply Core Lean Six Sigma Metrics

    Read and use the foundational metrics that drive improvement decisions, including DPU, DPMO, first-time yield, rolled throughput yield, cycle time and the cost of poor quality.
