Unlocking the potential of your organization skills through tailored training solutions in the fields of Industrial Engineering and Management, Lean Management, Industry 4.0, and many more.


TRAINING

SLFS offers a variety of training in the field of Lean 4.0. If any of those training is provided, it will be noted that they can have different durations according to the specific organization’s needs. Additionally, the training can be adapted for different groups of listeners with certain modifications. The offered training will be conducted in the scaled production environment of SLFS, allowing trainees to work on real practical examples within the simulated environment. The SLFS offers the following topics for training (click on each title for details):
