Master Lean Belt - Lean Transformation

Introduction

Our public certificated Master Lean Belt programmes are project-based incorporating a delegate project to be undertaken between the 3-day training blocks. Projects are selected by the delegate and their management in agreement with the course tutors prior to commencing the programme.
