Attendees will receive two certificates, one certificate for successfully completing the training and another certificate for successfully completing a live project, which will designate individuals as internationally-recognized Lean Agents.
The project is a real process improvement that the attendee chooses to implement for their current employer and requires them to put into action what they have learned. The certification for Lean is based on the attendee’s ability to apply the principles to a real project. We will expect to identify a project to apply these concepts to for their certification.
