LeanCor and Georgia Tech Kicking Off 2012 With Lean Supply Chain Certificate Series, Free Webinars

Building on the success of their first two years, LeanCor and the Georgia Tech Supply Chain & Logistics Institute will continue the Lean Supply Chain Professional Certificate Program this March.

Course 1: Building the Lean Supply Chain Problem Solver: March 13-15, 2012, September 18-20, 2012

Course 2: Building the Lean Supply Chain Professional: April 10-12, 2012, October 16-18, 2012

Course 3: Building the Lean Supply Chain Leader: May 15-17, 2012, November 13-15, 2012

Focusing on building the lean supply chain professional, this international program changes how supply chain professionals think, act, and lead by teaching them to develop and implement strategic and tactical elements of lean principles in the supply chain. The program results in reducing the total cost of the supply chain.

LeanCor and Georgia Tech are also offering free Lean Supply Chain webinars February 3 and March 15 that will preview the series, introducing participants to lean problem solving, lean supply chain management, and the lean leadership required to guide the journey.

 “I am only half way through the series and I am already able to apply the principals and tools I have learned back at my company,” said Derek Quinn, Service Manager at Big Freight Systems. “I’m looking forward to finishing the program and being able to share my knowledge not only with those in my organization, but with companies we service as well.”

“Successful organizations going forward will be those that focus on the customer, eliminate all non value added activities, reduce lead times and inventories, and build leaders who can navigate the supply chain from a cross-functional perspective.” Robert Martichenko, senior course lecturer and CEO of LeanCor, added that “when lean is successfully implemented in the supply chain, revenue will go up and costs will go down. This is the model of margin management and cash flow improvement required for today’s success.”
