AWS Productivity Solutions Bundle
American Welding Society (AWS)
Waste is an inherent problem in many businesses—and welding is no different. Every year, welding manufacturing operations lose millions of dollars in profits due to the improper calculation of costs and inefficient welding practices. However, every welding facility has opportunities for process improvement to increase welding productivity.
Before you enhance your organization’s impact on the industry, you must first understand the lean process. Our three-course Productivity Solutions Bundle features virtual, instructor-led and on-demand courses that cover how to mitigate waste and calculate costs, provide tips for implementing lean management in a welding operation, and teach you to become one of your company’s most valuable assets.
1. Economics of Welding: 18 Hours
2. Lean Management: 4 hours
3. Increase Your Facility’s Productivity: 12 hours (Custom Seminar)
•Access to Course Materials: Course – 90 days
•Target Audience: Supervisors, GM’s, Senior Management Professionals
