    What Value Stream Mapping Is and the Waste It Helps You RemoveUntitledA Core Lean Skill for Israeli Operations

    Value Stream Mapping Training in Israel is a practical, one-day Lean programme that teaches you to see the full flow of materials and information behind a product or service, then redesign it to remove waste. Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is a Lean management technique, rooted in the Toyota Production System (TPS) and popularised by Mike Rother and John Shook in Learning to See (1998), for visualising, analysing and improving end-to-end flow from concept to customer. For manufacturers, medical-device makers, semiconductor operations and food producers across Israel, VSM is the diagnostic that turns a busy operation into a measured one. You learn to build a current-state map by walking the actual floor, calculate lead time, cycle time and takt, then design a leaner future state and a plan to reach it. This is a hands-on skills course with no examination. You leave able to facilitate a mapping session for your own team and turn it into a prioritised improvement roadmap. Start building the capability with Invensis Learning.

    The Practical Skills You Build in One DayFrom Mapping to a Working Improvement Plan

    Skills covered in Value Stream Mapping training run from Lean foundations and symbols through current-state mapping, analysis, future-state design and implementation planning. By the end you can map, analyse and redesign a real value stream and plan the improvement.

    Read the Whole Value Stream

    Learn to see an operation as an end-to-end flow of materials and information, apply the five Lean principles, and spot the eight wastes of Lean (DOWNTIME) that hide inside everyday processes.

    Map with Standard VSM Symbols

    Use the standard value stream mapping symbol set, from process boxes and data boxes to push and pull arrows, inventory triangles, kanban and Kaizen bursts, so your maps are clear and consistent across teams.

    Build an Accurate Current-State Map

    Select a product family, walk the value stream on a Gemba walk, capture cycle time, changeover, uptime and inventory, and complete the timeline that reveals lead time versus value-added time.

    Analyse Flow and Find the Bottleneck

    Systematically read the map for waste, calculate takt time, compare push versus pull, and identify the true constraint that limits output so improvement effort targets the highest impact.

    Design a Leaner Future State

    Apply the eight future-state design questions to introduce continuous flow, pull systems and supermarkets, level the workload, and quantify the improvement from current to future state.

    Turn Maps into an Implementation Plan

    Convert the future-state map into a prioritised roadmap of Kaizen events, set baseline metrics, and use standard work to sustain the gains as a continuous improvement discipline.

    Frequently Asked QuestionsHere's everything you may ask...

    Value Stream Mapping (VSM) training is a one-day Lean skills programme that teaches you to map, analyse and redesign the end-to-end flow of materials and information behind a product or service. It is for operations and manufacturing managers, industrial and process engineers, Lean practitioners and supply-chain professionals across Israel.

    General

    What is Value Stream Mapping training and who is it for?

    Value Stream Mapping (VSM) training is a one-day Lean skills programme that teaches you to map, analyse and redesign the end-to-end flow of materials and information behind a product or service. It is for operations and manufacturing managers, industrial and process engineers, Lean practitioners and supply-chain professionals across Israel.

    Is Value Stream Mapping training worth it?

    Yes. VSM is one of the most practical Lean tools you can learn, and it pays back on the first project by revealing waste and the true bottleneck. In Israel, where medical-device, semiconductor, food and defence operations compete on lead time and cost, the skill is valued for roles like process improvement engineer and operations manager.

    Do I need prior Lean experience to attend?

    No. There are no formal prerequisites. Some familiarity with Lean ideas such as waste, flow and pull is helpful, but the course introduces every concept it uses, so beginners and experienced practitioners both benefit.

    What framework is Value Stream Mapping based on?

    VSM is a Lean management technique rooted in the Toyota Production System (TPS) and formalised for practitioners by Mike Rother and John Shook in Learning to See (1998). There is no separate governing body for the technique; the course teaches the widely used standard method.

    How long is the training and what format does it use?

    The programme runs for one day (8 hours) and covers Lean foundations, VSM symbols, current-state mapping, analysis, future-state design and implementation planning, with hands-on mapping exercises throughout. It is available online (live virtual), in the classroom and as onsite corporate training.

    Pricing

    How much does Value Stream Mapping training cost in Israel?

    Pricing varies by delivery mode, group size and schedule, so the current fee is available on request. Because there is no exam or certification body, the fee covers the training, courseware and mapping exercises only. Request a quote for individual or group pricing.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes instructor-led delivery, structured courseware, the full VSM symbol set, hands-on current-state and future-state mapping exercises, and a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning. There is no separate exam fee.

    Do you offer group or corporate discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for operations, quality and improvement teams. Onsite delivery lets your team map a real process during the session. Contact us for a tailored group quote.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, with instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam for Value Stream Mapping training?

    No. This is a non-certification skills course with no examination. Learning is reinforced through hands-on mapping exercises and group discussion during the one-day programme, so you practise the technique as you learn it.

    What do I receive after completing the training?

    You receive a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning. No formal credential is awarded by an external body, because VSM is a technique rather than a certified qualification. The value is the practical skill you can apply immediately at work.

    How is my learning checked during the course?

    Learning is checked through practical activity rather than a test. You build both a current-state and a future-state map for a realistic scenario, work through analysis exercises with the trainer, and discuss your maps with the group.

    Will I be able to run a mapping session myself afterwards?

    Yes. The course is designed so you can facilitate a VSM workshop for your own team, walk a value stream, capture the data, draw the maps and turn them into a prioritised improvement plan without outside help.

    Does the completion certificate expire or need renewal?

    No. The course completion certificate does not expire and needs no renewal, because VSM is a skill rather than a time-limited credential. What you learn stays applicable, and you can refresh a value stream every 6 to 12 months as part of continuous improvement.

    Course Content

    What topics does the Value Stream Mapping course cover?

    The course covers six areas: Lean foundations and the eight wastes, the standard VSM symbol set, building the current-state map, analysing flow and finding the bottleneck, designing the future state, and implementation planning to sustain improvement.

    What will I be able to do after the training?

    You will be able to select a product family, run a Gemba walk to collect real data, draw a current-state map with standard symbols, calculate takt and lead time, identify waste, design a future-state map, and build a Kaizen and implementation roadmap.

    Are the mapping exercises hands-on?

    Yes. You practise mapping throughout the day, creating both a current-state and a future-state map for a realistic operational scenario. In onsite corporate sessions, teams often map one of their own real processes.

    Which industries is the training relevant to?

    VSM applies well beyond the shop floor. It is used in manufacturing, medical devices, semiconductors, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, defence and aerospace, logistics, financial services and IT, wherever teams want to improve process flow.

    What VSM symbols and tools will I learn to use?

    You learn the full standard VSM symbol set, including process and data boxes, push and pull arrows, inventory triangles, kanban and supermarket symbols, and Kaizen bursts. You also apply takt time, cycle time and lead-time calculations to read the map.
