Lean Enterprise Certification
NBDC/MEP certification will give you, a core group, or entire team from your facility the experience and confidence to implement lean manufacturing improvements. Workshops teach techniques including value stream mapping, cellular flow manufacturing, standardized work, the visual workplace, and set-up reduction.
Nationally-developed lean enterprise training courses are taught by experienced NIST/MEP certified instructors. You will get hands-on training in Lean manufacturing principles and their practical application.
This program is ideal for small companies that do not have the resources for custom on-site lean manufacturing training. You can send one or two people for the entire series or mix and match people based upon session topic and your needs.
COST
$1,700 (pays for all required workshops for each participant). Registration for each series will be limited to 20 applicants.
Certificate training must be completed within 18 months from the start of the program.
CEUs
Those who complete the certificate program can receive 5.6 Continuing Education Units (CEU). To apply for CEUs CONTACT US .
REGISTRATION
A new certificate program is offered approximately every three months. We advise you to sign up early. Each program is offered to the first 20 registrants so it fills quickly. For more information on when our next program begins and dates, location, and registration for workshops CONTACT US.

Based on the classic manufacturing text Five Pillars of the Visual Workplace, this course teaches shopfloor workers the basics of five S's the cleaning and straightening activities that are the foundation for all workplace improvements. Especially useful for operators in manufacturing environments, pilot teams and implementers of Lean manufacturing. This course provides the foundation for creating a Lean environment.
Set-Up Reduction/ Quick Changeover
Call today to sign up for this newly scheduled Certificate group. Set-up scheduled for Tuesday, October 7, 2008.
This workshop scheduled for October 7, 2008..Call to find out the benefits in being a Host site.
Learn the fundamental principles of set-up reduction. The course follows the principles first expressed by Dr. Shigeo Shingo and his work on Single Minute Exchange of Dies (SMED). Participants learn the standard methodology in applying SMED to any type set-up, changeover or process in any industry and environment.
Value Stream Mapping
Workshop series to begin August 2008. VSM dates TBD..Call today to be a Host site for Value Stream Mapping!
VSM is a Two-Day Workshop; Contact NMEP to be considered as a Host Company for this valuable workshop.
In this two-day workshop, learn how to eliminate waste by mapping the flow of products from raw materials through the manufacturing steps to the final product. Real company examples and case studies will be presented. Participants will create current and future state maps for their own company's value stream. PREREQUISITES: Participants must have completed NBDC/NMEP Principles of Lean Manufacturing, 5S-Workplace Organization and Set-Up Reduction/Quick Changeover. Contact us prior to class for more information.
Cellular Flow Manufacturing
Next date to be determined after start of August 12th Lean Principles workshop
Registered Attendees: Must take Cellular/Flow and Standard Work consecutively - Currently, changing class date is limited-call ASAP
Learn how to link and balance manufacturing operations to reduce lead times, minimize work in process, optimize floor space usage, and improve productivity. The instructor will lead the class through the MEP five-step process for designing and implementing work cells. This process applies to both assembly and machining applications. Includes Kanban and Pull methodology. PREREQUISITE: Participants must have completed NBDC/NMEP Value Stream Mapping. They must take Standardized Work concurrently with Cellular Flow Manufacturing.
Standardized Work
Lean Certificate Final Exam: Must take Cellular/Flow & Standard Work consecutively;
Location Address: Educational Service Unit #3(ESU#3)@ 110th & Harrison-Omaha (6949 South 110th Street)Educational Service Unit #3 Web Site (ESU#3)
Documented standards are a requirement for any company seeking to continuously improve. Standardized Work describes a work process and provides a baseline for measuring improvement. This hands-on course will demonstrate how to analyze the interaction of people, materials, methods, and machines in a work process and develop the most effective combination of resources in the best sequence to achieve the desired output and reduce waste. PREREQUISITES: Particiants must have completed NBDC/NMEP Principles of Lean Manufacturing. They must take Cellular Flow Manufacturing concurrently with Standardized Work.
Total Productive Maintenance Kaizen
If you would like to host a Kaizen event such as this, please let us know. Company rates differ from individual rates.
This event is separate and in addition to the Lean Certificate Series.
For the certified lean practitioner, this workshop will provide you with valuable experience in Kaizen facilitation, team skills, project scopes, and impelmentation. Some implementers have never participated in a Kaizen before they try to lead one. This workshop will provide the opportunity to experience a hands-on Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) Kaizen event at Vishay Dale.
