A comprehensive suite of accredited courses designed to improve business performance.
Many people in business are familiar with the term 'Lean' in the context of management methods, but may not have had the benefit of training in the principles.
LearningPlus, PeoplePlus's online learning platform, now offers a complete Lean training solution in the form of the Lean Six Sigma Belts from 100% Effective. A broad range of staff members can now benefit from this transformational learning. Online course materials are interactive, engaging and accessible to all, supported by the innovative LearningPlus Learning Management System.
Lean methods in combination with Six Sigma belts supercharge continuing professional development, benefitting employers directly and indirectly as staff are valued, supported and invested in. For individuals, obtaining a Six Sigma belt appropriate to your level of responsibility, or the scope of a future role, is investment returned in the form of improved earning capacity.
The greater the number of team members taught Lean methods in a common system, the deeper the positive impact on the bottom line as incremental improvements and changes are magnified from project to project.
Lean methods have become synonymous with efficiency, productivity and innovation because they deliver measurable improvements.
