This course gives you a good overview of why six sigma and lean are necessary. It also gives you an understanding of how team dynamics play important roles and how brainstorming is an effective tool.

Course is very disorganized. Purchasing reading materials is required to complete the course. I purchased "Six Sigma: A Complete Step-by-Step Guide" instead of the yellow-belt-specific and it worked ok, but I've found self-study to be more constructive than this course. Videos are mediocre quality and very dry/boring.

The course is not very useful for my intent. I do not really care about the actual facts (like PPM on errors saved). I want to learn about the general principles and how to apply them, instead of learning facts that are only interesting as trivia.

Dropped after the first quiz of the 1st week. The logical result of non-synced slides / lectures + the instructor has a particular way of speaking. Contrary to other courses I took, this one leaves a strange after-taste. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

It provides very few information in the videos.

It looks the purpose of this course is you buy and read the book.

Videos are plain presentations with a lot of text, rather than visual information, without a presenter at sight.

I did not get far in the course as most of the education was just reading the book and then when I went to take the tests the questions contained typos, misspellings and at points very unclear.

no deberin de ser 8 horas por perder una prueba, deberina de ser 5 por muchos, y poner otra asignacion que valga el 100%, 8 horas es demasiado, no es una jornada laboral, es un curso

It's almost like the course was structured to make you, after many tries to beat its tedious content, give up and never, ever, mess with it again.
