Lean Belt Certification E-learning

CTM was incorporated in 1986 with the belief that any company could dramatically improve productivity by reducing cycle time and squeezing out waste using Lean methods.  At the time, this was revolutionary thinking and CTM was a pioneer in this thought process back in the 1980s. Over the years CTM has delivered high-quality services to manufacturing, healthcare, wineries, and several other organizations. Take advantage of our experience through our new digital portal.

Attention SME Business Owners and Senior Managers ($4,000 + HST)

While lean production has been around since the 1980s,  proper and complete implementation still proves challenging for many companies – with more than half of companies not realizing full potential returns. As competition continues to drive costs down, there is a need to revisit the Lean implementation processes at senior management levels, especially in Small to Medium Sized enterprises (SME). The goal should be engagement with Lean, not simply compliance.

CTM’s Knowledge Center has developed an innovative Lean Thinking, self-directed E-Learning course and kit for SME business owners and senior managers. The goal is to guide them in how to effectively create a Lean implementation strategy that works for them and their company.
