LSS is used for any process in any field or discipline and will help to improve contribution for a current or future employer.
Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt is for those who are new to Six Sigma and who have a passion for developing a basic knowledge of Six Sigma. A Six-Sigma Project is divided into five phases: Six Sigma Fundamentals, Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control. This course will explain about the principle, stages of project management, data collection, failure effect analysis and many more.
A Six Sigma Project is divided into five phases: Six Sigma Fundamentals, Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control. Six Sigma Project cannot start without going through the Six Sigma fundamentals phase.
