Course Description

This self-paced e-learning course provides a thorough introduction to the Toyota Production System (TPS) and Lean Manufacturing, ideal for professionals aiming to enhance operational efficiency and reduce waste in their organizations. Designed for flexible online learning, this course allows participants to explore the principles of TPS and Lean at their own pace through engaging multimedia content, and interactive exercises.

Throughout the course, participants will learn how key TPS principles like Jidoka (automation with a human touch), Just-In-Time (JIT), Kaizen (continuous improvement), and Heijunka (production leveling) can be applied to streamline processes, reduce variability, and drive long-term success. With online assessments and practical tools, participants can immediately apply these methodologies in their work environments.

Course Outcomes

By the end of this e-learning course, participants will:
  • Understand the fundamental concepts of TPS and Lean Manufacturing and how they improve operational performance.
  • Identify and reduce waste, variability, and overburden using Lean principles.
  • Apply continuous improvement strategies (Kaizen) within a variety of operational settings.
  • Implement pull systems and process flow improvements to minimize overproduction and optimize workflow.
  • Utilize tools such as Kanban, Andon, and Jidoka to monitor and improve production processes.
  • Improve quality control and efficiency by standardizing operations and reducing errors with Poka-Yoke.
