Session 6: Convergent Decision-Making and Set-Based Concurrent Engineering from Lean Product Development Basics (63 minutes)
“The Lean Product Development Basics course came at the right time with the right content for us.”
We wanted to improve our R & D operations, and this course brought us the clarity to move from theory into concrete implementation.
The course is very rich in content, and although we were able to implement several parts already, we will continue to be able to use the knowledge for a long time."

Class participation strictly limited.
These web classes give you the ability to learn key concepts either on your own or as part of a team.
We keep the technology simple: a web meeting with audioconference that we record for the people who miss it, supported with a class web page to store downloads, reference materials and homework assignments.
Throughout the class, you have access to Katherine to help you complete your homework assignment. Your registration includes the teleconference, recorded audio, additional reference materials and presentation slides.
This web learning experience is designed to help the Lean Product Development Champion build and sustain support for lean product development from the executives to the engineers and technicians.
When this class is completed, you will have developed the materials for a Proposal or Program Charter to present to senior management to get approval for a Lean Product Development Program.
We will announce dates and open registration soon for Winter and Spring 2011.
