Six Sigma Yellow Belt Final Exam

You have completed all seven modules of the Six Sigma Yellow Belt course. From the fundamentals of Six Sigma and Lean through each phase of the DMAIC methodology, you now have the knowledge to support improvement projects and apply structured problem-solving in banking operations.

This final exam covers the entire DMAIC methodology — Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control — along with foundational Six Sigma and Lean concepts. The questions draw from every module, so you will need a solid understanding of the complete improvement cycle to pass.

Exam details:

  • 30 questions covering all course modules
  • Pass mark: 70% (21 out of 30 correct)
  • Unlimited retakes — if you do not pass on your first attempt, review the relevant modules and try again
  • No time limit — take your time and consider each question carefully

Review your notes from each module if needed. Pay particular attention to key tools (SIPOC, Fishbone, Pareto, control charts), the purpose of each DMAIC phase, and how Six Sigma applies specifically to banking and financial services operations.

Upon passing, you will be able to generate your Six Sigma Yellow Belt certificate from Insight Centric — a credential that demonstrates your understanding of the DMAIC methodology and your ability to contribute to process improvement initiatives in financial services.
