Course Overview

The advanced manufacturing sector has developed to include a wide range of new technologies and can involve

the manufacturing of a number of different products with different specifications at any given time. This can result

in lean manufacturing operatives being required to carry out manufacturing activities on multiple products with

different specifications consecutively.

A Lean Manufacturing Operative will be required to contribute, develop and support improvement in the manufacturing operation using continuous improvement methods, kaizen tools, process visualisation using lean

principles and problem solving tools and techniques.
