Hello Vijay,

Thank you for asking the question but honestly I do not know why the Yellow Belt (Lean Six Sigma) is no longer included as required for certification purposes. There are many jobs that still require Yellow Belts rather than Green Belts therefore their knowledge would have to exist prior to doing projects.

Best regards,
Dorina
