Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between White Belt and Yellow Belt?
White Belt teaches vocabulary and awareness only. Yellow Belt adds practical tools, process mapping, data collection, and basic root-cause analysis, so you can actively do project work, not just understand it.
Do I need Yellow Belt before Green Belt?
It's not a strict prerequisite, but it helps. Yellow Belt's process-mapping and root-cause tools are foundational to Green Belt's statistical curriculum, so it makes Green Belt easier to absorb.
What's included in the Yellow Belt fee?
Live instructor-led training for all 16 hours, templates for SIPOC/fishbone/data-collection tools, practice datasets, and your named CSSC-recognised certificate on completion.
What languages is Yellow Belt taught in?
English, Hindi or Hinglish, tell us your preference when you enquire and we'll confirm a batch for it.
How soon do I get my certificate after finishing?
The same day you complete the course, delivered digitally as a PDF, print-ready, with a unique certificate ID you can share with employers.
Is Yellow Belt self-paced or recorded?
No. Every SigmaCS batch, live online, classroom or on-site, is delivered live by an instructor, there's no self-paced or pre-recorded track.
Do you offer EMI or corporate group pricing?
Ask when you enquire, individual EMI options and corporate group rates (5+ participants) are handled case by case rather than published as a fixed plan.
What job roles typically hold a Yellow Belt?
Team members and analysts who actively contribute to DMAIC projects, collecting data, mapping processes, running root-cause sessions, without formally leading the project themselves.
