16 Contact hours. This series of 3 courses: 1) Kaizen 2) Value Stream Mapping 3) A3 Scientific Problem Solving include how to plan, conduct and execute a Kaizen event with our team for a specified period of time. As a part of the Kaizen Event, we will use the methodology and tools of Lean to brainstorm a current state design or an illustration of the way the process looks today. Through a team approach to continuous improvement, we will identify opportunities embedded within that process and redesign an improved future state by using the scientific method of problem solving.
