    What Is Kanban and How Does It Improve Workflow?A Practical Introduction

    Kanban Training in Switzerland teaches you how to manage work as a visual, pull-based flow, so teams deliver faster with less waste. Kanban is a workflow management method that began in the Toyota Production System, where the Japanese word kanban means signboard or visual signal, and today it guides both factory pull production and Agile knowledge work. Over one focused day you learn how a kanban signal authorises work only when there is real downstream demand, how to size manufacturing kanban loops and supermarkets, and how to design a Kanban board with work in progress (WIP) limits for software, IT and service teams. You also learn to read flow metrics such as lead time, cycle time and throughput, and to interpret a Cumulative Flow Diagram. This practical, non-certification course suits production and operations managers, supply chain professionals, Agile coaches and delivery leads across Switzerland's industrial and services economy. Start your Kanban journey with Invensis Learning.

    The Kanban Skills You Will Put to WorkFrom Pull Production to Agile Boards

    This one-day programme builds hands-on capability in both manufacturing and knowledge-work Kanban. By the end, you can design and size a pull system, build a board with WIP limits, and use flow metrics to improve delivery.

    Design a Pull-Based Production System

    Set up manufacturing kanban with production and withdrawal cards, supermarkets and two-bin systems, so work is authorised only when real downstream demand creates a withdrawal signal.

    Size Kanban Loops and Quantities

    Calculate kanban quantities and the number of cards using daily demand, replenishment lead time and a safety factor, and link sizing to takt time so inventory stays capped by design.

    Build a Kanban Board with WIP Limits

    Design boards with columns, swimlanes, classes of service and work in progress limits for software, IT and service teams, so flow is visible and overload is prevented.

    Measure and Improve Flow

    Track lead time, cycle time and throughput, apply Little's Law, and read a Cumulative Flow Diagram to spot bottlenecks and drive data-based improvement.

    Apply Scrumban and Agile Kanban

    Combine Kanban with Scrum, run daily stand-ups that walk the board from right to left, and balance incoming demand against team capacity with replenishment.

    Implement and Sustain Kanban

    Start with your current workflow, roll out Kanban with minimal disruption, and keep reducing WIP limits and kanban quantities as process improvement takes hold.

    Kanban Training

    Frequently Asked QuestionsHere's everything you may ask...

    Kanban is a visual, pull-based method for managing workflow, so work is authorised only when there is real downstream demand. The one-day training covers both manufacturing Kanban (kanban cards, supermarkets and just-in-time sizing) and Agile Kanban (boards, WIP limits and flow metrics).

    General

    What is Kanban and what does the training cover?

    Kanban is a visual, pull-based method for managing workflow, so work is authorised only when there is real downstream demand. The one-day training covers both manufacturing Kanban (kanban cards, supermarkets and just-in-time sizing) and Agile Kanban (boards, WIP limits and flow metrics).

    Is Kanban training worth it for professionals in Switzerland?

    Yes. Kanban skills are valued across Swiss pharma, machinery, banking and technology employers who want less waste and more predictable delivery. The training is practical and applies immediately, whether you manage a production line or an Agile team.

    Who should attend the Kanban course?

    It suits production and operations managers, supply chain and materials professionals, Lean coordinators, Agile coaches and Scrum Masters, and IT, software and service delivery managers who manage the flow of work through a system.

    Do I need prior Lean or Agile experience?

    No. There are no formal prerequisites, and all Kanban concepts are introduced from first principles. Some familiarity with Lean or production operations is helpful for the manufacturing modules but is not required.

    Where did Kanban originate?

    Manufacturing Kanban was developed by Taiichi Ohno at Toyota in the 1950s as part of the Toyota Production System, inspired by supermarket replenishment. Knowledge-work Kanban was later formalised for software and IT by David J. Anderson in the 2000s.

    Pricing

    How much does Kanban training cost in Switzerland?

    Pricing is available on request and varies by delivery format, group size and schedule. For a public seat or a team quote, request a quote or speak with a learning advisor for current options.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically covers instructor-led sessions, structured courseware, hands-on Kanban design exercises, learner support and a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning.

    Do you offer corporate or group pricing?

    Yes. Group and onsite pricing is available for teams and departments, with customised scheduling. Contact us for a tailored quote based on your group size and preferred format.

    What payment and instalment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, and offer instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Is there a separate exam fee?

    No. This is a non-certification course with no examination and no external body, so there is no exam fee. You receive a course completion certificate on finishing the one-day programme.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam for Kanban training?

    No. Kanban training is a non-certification course with no examination. Learning is reinforced through hands-on system design exercises, case examples and team discussion during the day.

    Do I receive a certification after the course?

    No formal certification or credential is awarded by an external body. You receive a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning that recognises your practical Kanban skills.

    How is learning assessed during the training?

    There is no formal assessment. Instead, you apply the concepts through exercises such as kanban quantity calculation, loop and supermarket design, Kanban board design, WIP-limit setting and Cumulative Flow Diagram interpretation.

    Will I be able to apply Kanban at work immediately?

    Yes. On completing the training you can size kanban systems, design boards with WIP limits, measure lead time, cycle time and throughput, and plan a Kanban rollout in a manufacturing or Agile environment.

    Is Kanban an Agile framework or a Lean tool?

    Both. Kanban is a recognised Lean manufacturing tool and a standalone Agile framework used for software, IT and services. It is often combined with Scrum as Scrumban and applied within scaled Agile settings.

    Course Content

    What topics does the Kanban course cover?

    The programme spans six modules: Kanban origins and pull production, manufacturing Kanban types and mechanics, kanban sizing and implementation, knowledge-work boards and WIP limits, flow metrics and the Cumulative Flow Diagram, and implementing and sustaining Kanban.

    Does it cover both manufacturing and Agile Kanban?

    Yes. It covers manufacturing Kanban (production and withdrawal kanban, supermarkets, sizing and just-in-time pull) and Agile Kanban (boards, WIP limits, classes of service, flow metrics, Scrumban), so it fits both factory and knowledge-work teams.

    How long is the Kanban training?

    The course is delivered in one day of 8 hours, with hands-on design exercises throughout. It can also be arranged as two half-days to fit team schedules.

    Are there hands-on exercises?

    Yes. You practise push versus pull identification, kanban quantity calculation, kanban loop design for a production scenario, Agile Kanban board design, WIP-limit setting and Cumulative Flow Diagram interpretation.

    What will I learn about flow metrics?

    You learn to measure and interpret lead time, cycle time and throughput, apply Little's Law, use lead-time percentiles for delivery commitments, and read a Cumulative Flow Diagram to find bottlenecks.

    Enrollment

    How do I enrol in Kanban training in Switzerland?

    You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete your booking, and you receive access to schedules, courseware and learning resources. Talk to a learning advisor if you need help choosing.

    Can the course be delivered onsite for my team?

    Yes. Corporate onsite and live virtual delivery is available for teams, and it is especially effective because participants can design kanban systems and boards for their own real workflows during the exercises.
