Lean Certification



Lean certification programs are perfect for individuals, professionals, and organizations looking to improve team performance or advance their careers at various stages of the improvement journey. The programs include practical simulations, real-life case studies, and reflective exercises to ensure lasting, impactful learning. As a globally recognized and respected credential, Lean certification enhances personal portfolios and fosters professional growth.

Beyond TPS:
Why Our Lean Certification Programs Stand Out?



The core of Lean certification is not to replicate the Toyota Production System (TPS) but to equip professionals with the ability to develop customized solutions that drive sustainable improvement and enhance business and financial performance. Grounded in Lean principles, philosophy, and the human system, this certification offers a structured framework for practitioners to build the skills needed to design and implement effective tools and strategies tailored to their unique challenges—just as Toyota did with TPS.
