Nationally funded and broad Based Training in Competitive Manufacturing and Front Line ManagementIn order to create a culture of Lean Six Sigma knowledge and skills across the business AOQ-QLD now offers Nationally, a number of Nationally recognised Certificate programs including Cert III & IV in Competitive Manufacturing, and Cert IV in Front Line Management. Certificate IV in Competitive Manufacturing gives supervisors, leading hands and team leaders the skills needed to lead workplace improvements in Quality, process efficiency, responsiveness and cost reduction whilst ensuring employee health and safety. In our approach to this training, we combine this qualification with a certificate in Lean Six Sigma at Yellow Belt level by mapping the competencies necessary to satisfy both programs. The Yellow Belt Certificate covers the set of competencies that the AOQ has registered internationally through RBQSA (USA). This approach has the advantage of providing a clear project/problem solving methodology that integrates the wide range of skills acquired through the various Modules of the Certificate program. In our experience, this improves the impact of the training on the organisation, by making it more sustainable. Its DMAIC (Define - Measure - Analyse - Improve - Control) methodology also ensures that improvement is aligned with your organisation's goals. The training ensures the organisation has achieved the required level of competency and knowledge so it can establish an improvement program that is really sustainable. The Nationally accredited Certificate III in Competitive Manufacturing enables your team to improve its work practices by applying similar DMAIC skills. We combine this qualification with a Certificate in Lean Six Sigma at White Belt level by mapping the competencies necessary to satisfy both programs. Cert IV in Front Line Management allows team leaders and supervisors to gain the necessary skills and knowledge to provide leadership and guidance to others and take responsibility for the effective functioning and performance of the team and its work outcomes. This Federally (and sometimes also State) funded training is an excellent way to create the fertile culture in which to plant and grow a successful business improvement program. By covering a very large percentage of your workforce, broad-based training ensures that your improvement program will be accepted and even embraced by your people. They will get to understand the process of improvement, the tools it uses and also to practice it themselves, in a controlled, group context. This reduces the natural reticence that most of us have towards change. The training also allows you to identify those individuals who have the potential to become the real "Change Agents or Drivers" in your organisation. These are the people who will reach out for the new and radically better ways of doing business. These change agents would become either Lean Sigma Black or Green Belts with further training and competency assessments to drive change within the business (refer Lean Sigma training ). In the Certificate level training we achieve results by ensuring that the training programs are:
Another critical success factor is that there is within the organisation an individual who can drive it internally. As part of the program, we support and mentor this person so they can carry out this role effectively. Before commencement of any training we undertake an extensive design and development phase which includes:
