Training Format

This is an in-company workshop, meaning it is only available for group bookings.

In-company – also referred to as “in-house” or “on-site” training – is a format where we provide training solely to your team or a group of participants from your organisation.

We can deliver training in two ways:

  • an in-person classroom style, where come to your premises (or a venue you choose).
  • online as a live virtual classroom. This is a real-time, interactive workshop, delivered by our experienced trainers – superb for remote teams.

If you have only 1 or 2 team members you would like to train in process improvement capabilities, why not take a look at our lean six sigma green belt or yellow belt course?

Delivery Style

The workshop is very active in learning style. It is also a very tailored programme, where participants apply the learning to an existing problem in your business.

We will identify the problem you want to tackle and focus the content around how lean problem solving principles could help you achieve the outcome you need.

Flexible and Cost Effective

This method of training gives you greater control over the training delivery date. You choose dates that work around your business schedule instead of slotting in with public course dates.

Our in-company pricing structure means that it can work out as a very cost-efficient way to develop the process improvement skills of your entire team or department.
