Lean Basic Training
Ready to experience Lean in action — not just in theory?
This hands-on course is the perfect starting point for anyone who wants to understand and apply the core principles of Lean production. Whether you’re new to Lean or looking to build a strong foundation, this training will equip you with the essential tools and thinking to eliminate waste, streamline processes, and boost efficiency.
You will start with the typical types of waste in production but learn way more!
We combine theory and practice!
Throughout the course, you’ll not only learn about the fundamental building blocks of lean manufacturing, such as pull production, standardization, and continuous improvement, but also apply them directly in a dynamic production simulation. Working with your team, you’ll design, build, and continuously improve a model assembly line for paper airplanes — a fun, engaging, and highly effective way to turn theory into real-world results.
You will optimize paperplane
production, and build … A lot!
See, how your own ideas work out!
Through multiple improvement rounds, you’ll identify waste, analyze performance, and implement changes using classic lean tools like 5S, takt time, and line balancing. Each round brings new insights and challenges, giving you a clear sense of how lean thinking transforms not just processes,
but your entire way of working.
We will introduce you to all relevant
lean tools and methods
Know how to implement your skills!
By the end of this course, you’ll walk away with a solid understanding of lean fundamentals, practical experience in process optimization, and the confidence to start applying lean principles in your own organization.
