Company In-house Program
Many companies have requested company in-house support as an addendum to the on-line program whereby the client requests an international facilitator to spend time in the facility to impart a ‘practical' and ‘project-based' learning approach to the certification process. This involves a series of on-site workshops where the lean concepts, tools, and philosophies can be applied on a sample basis to the client's enterprise. Read More about our In-House Program
