Course Aims
The Problem-solving using LEAN techniques course focuses on practical approaches that can be used to identify problems, understand their underlying causes and develop effective solutions.

The techniques covered can be applied to a wide variety of workplace situations, from inefficient processes and recurring errors to delays, waste and service-quality issues.
