This course introduces the principles and philosophy of Lean Thinking. Learners will gain skills to identify value and waste and understand how to maximize efficiency through hands-on experience in: building a Value Stream Map, building a roadmap for implementing flow and pull concepts, optimizing the movement of goods and information, and in the application of A3 and Kaizen methodologies. Learners will leave this course prepared to streamline operations, reduce waste, and enhance overall performance.

Throughout the course you can expect an interactive experience where you will engage with weekly module content and activities independently, as well as collaborate with your peers through discussion forums and group projects.
