ADVANCED MANUFACTURING SERIES 

medt announces funding: 50% off lean training!

Ontario's Ministry of Economic Development and Trade - MEDT (Communities in Transition) and Excellence in Manufacturing Consortium (EMC) are continuing to help manufacturers increase competitiveness and become more efficient, through the rapid deployment of much needed productivity skills training.

Announced recently, all Ontario manufacturers are eligible to receive 50% off the cost of Lean training, at more than 50 hands-on Lean training sessions being hosted by EMC across the province.  Over 2,600 manufacturing leaders benefited from the EMC-MEDT funded Lean training during the first round of this initiative.

 Introducing a series of workshops designed for Advanced Manufacturing. These workshops bring the concept of "Lean" to the workplace in various aspects, from the shop floor to purchasing and accounting in the "Lean" office. Customized "Value Stream Mapping" is also offered as a two day workshop and is a hands-on, simulation based workshop that provides participants with a visual tool that graphically identifies every process in product's flow, giving visibility to both the value-steps as well as the non-value steps.
