What are Lean Learning Paths?

Lean Learning Paths are a structured series of modules offered by GBMP Consulting Group. They are designed to progressively build your knowledge and skills in Lean methodologies. The paths consist of four levels: Lean Fundamentals, Lean Practitioner, Kaizen Event Leader, and Lean Leader.

Who are these courses for?

Lean Learning Paths are ideal for professionals at various stages of their Lean journey, from beginners looking to understand Lean fundamentals to experienced practitioners aiming to refine their leadership skills. Our badges of completion indicate your expertise, experience and dedication to Lean excellence.

Are there any prerequisites for enrolling in Lean Learning Paths?

There are no prerequisites for starting with Lean Fundamentals. However, each subsequent Learning Path requires the completion of the previous one to ensure you have the necessary foundational knowledge.

I am an experienced Lean practitioner. Can I just take the exam to get a badge?

Yes, you can take the exam to earn your badge for the first 2 Learning Paths (Lean Fundamentals & Lean Practitioner) without attending the courses. The cost is $99 per exam.

How many modules are in each Lean Learning Path?

Each Lean Learning Path consists of five workshops (modules), providing comprehensive training at each level.

Can I take the workshops separately?

Yes. If you're just looking for one workshop on a specific subject, you can view our schedule of events and register for the modules individually. However, the five modules in each Learning Path are designed sequentially to ensure a cohesive and thorough learning experience. It is also more cost-effective.

Are the courses offered online or in person?

All of the above! All courses are offered virtually via five 4-hour interactive Zoom meetings led by experienced Lean instructors. You may also complete the curriculum on your own, at your own pace, on GBMP's new Digital Learning Platform. 

If I choose the self-paced option, am I totally on my own?

Only if you want to be! We also offer a Hybrid option: Tackle the self-paced curriculum on your own and at your own pace and join live monthly coaching sessions with GBMP Continuous Improvement Managers for implementation assistance.
