Lean Certificate Workshop

Download Lean Special Session Agenda

 

Lean Operations is the philosophy of management that emphasizes the minimization of all the resources used in the various activities of the enterprise. It also involves identifying and eliminating non-value-added activities in the product design process; the supply chain of timely inter-related events and focus on customer needs, success and satisfaction.

 

Our two day Lean Certificate Workshop was originally created to review the threads of lean operations that ultimately lead to successful lean adoption. Evolution of this program (since 2000) has resulted in a workshop that initiates attendees to lean terms, tools and techniques and more importantly, allows participants to immediately apply the lessons learned during the framework of our 2 day workshop.

 

Over the past decade, it has been realized that two audiences for the lean workshop exist. Some attendees only need and want a quick and intense workshop that exposes and reveals and discusses the principles of lean education. To that audience – this Lean Workshop will exceed expectations.

 

Our other audience requires that a lean foundation be quickly formed due to current organizational circumstances. Fortunately, our lean certificate workshop program provides the tools for a team or individual professional to implement at a project/team level. In fact, all attendees are encouraged to submit documentation of a project that demonstrates successful analysis and implementation of the learned lean principles. Execution ® Improvement ® Results. This workshop will exceed expectations.

 

Attendees can expect:

  • To actively participate in a learning and application process of lean tools and techniques.

  • To learn how to identify and eliminate waste; become a lean and competitive organization.
