Intro to Lean

Start free. Intro to Lean shows you how to see waste, map how work really flows, write standard work, and make small improvements a daily habit. You do a waste walk and run one real improvement in your own workplace. Finish it and get a certificate of completion, then take White Belt, then move on to Yellow Belt.

What you will learn

Five short modules and a 10-question quiz, about 2 to 3 hours in total.

• Module 1: What Lean is (and what it is not)
• Module 2: The eight wastes (DOWNTIME)
• Module 3: Value and the value stream
• Module 4: Standard work and flow
• Module 5: Kaizen, the improvement habit
• Quiz: 10 questions

What you get

Finish all five modules and the quiz to receive a free Certificate of Completion, BBG University, with the course name and Marc’s signature. It is a certificate of completion, not a certification.
