    The Lean Tools You Will Put to WorkA Practical Toolkit for Leaner Delivery

    By the end of the programme you can apply the full Lean toolkit to real projects, from mapping value and removing waste to solving problems and leading improvement. The skills are practical, hands-on, and ready to use in your workplace.

    Value Stream Mapping

    You will learn to map current and future state value streams to expose delay and waste across a project workflow, then redesign the flow for speed and value. This is the core diagnostic skill covered in the Lean project management training.

    Waste Identification and Elimination

    Recognise the different types of waste in project processes and apply Lean techniques to remove non-value-added activity, so delivery becomes leaner, faster and lower cost.

    Kanban and Lean Scheduling

    Use Kanban boards and Lean scheduling to visualise work, limit work in progress, and keep projects flowing smoothly from planning through to delivery.

    Continuous Improvement with PDCA

    Apply the Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle to embed continuous improvement in project work, making small, steady gains that compound into reliable delivery.

    Lean Problem Solving with A3 and DMAIC

    Structure and solve project problems using A3 thinking and DMAIC, getting to root causes and putting countermeasures in place that prevent recurrence.

    Lean Leadership and Customer Value

    Define customer value, engage stakeholders, and lead teams to build a Lean culture, so improvement becomes a shared habit rather than a one-off exercise.

    Is there an exam or assessment to pass?

    No. This is a non-certification training course with no examination. Your learning is reinforced through industry-driven case studies, real-world project examples, interactive exercises and retrospective sessions during the programme.

    Does the completion certificate expire?

    No. The certificate of completion does not expire and there is nothing to renew. The Lean skills you learn are immediately applicable and stay useful throughout your career.

    How long is the training and what is the format?

    The programme runs over two days (16 hours), and can also be delivered as four half-days. It is instructor-led, interactive and built around case studies, exercises and discussion rather than lectures alone.

    Are there case studies and practical exercises?

    Yes. The training is highly practical, with industry-driven case studies, real-world Lean project examples, interactive exercises and retrospective sessions that help you apply the tools to situations like your own.

    Do I need any special software or tools?

    No special software or tools are required. The focus is on the Lean methodology and principles, though simple tools can help you visualise processes, track improvements and analyse data once you apply what you learn.
