The Lean IT Essentials entry-level course is the first in the Lean IT certification scheme, and it is a mandatory requirement for taking the other two advanced courses: Lean IT Kaizen and Lean IT Leadership.
Description
Lean IT provides practical guidance that focuses on the improvement of whatever processes already exist within the organisation. Regardless of the framework or standard your IT organisation has chosen, the central focus of Lean IT is learning how to assess any business process to eliminate waste, where waste is defined as something that adds no value to a product, service, or output.
The Lean IT Essentials entry-level course is the first in the Lean IT certification scheme, and it is a mandatory requirement for taking the other two advanced courses: Lean IT Kaizen and Lean IT Leadership.
