    On completing the one-day programme you receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning. It confirms your participation and the practical Kaizen skills you have built.

    Will I get a formal credential or certification?

    No formal certification or external credential is awarded, as Kaizen has no governing body. You receive a course completion record, and the practical skills are immediately usable in the workplace.

    Yes. Workshop simulation exercises run throughout the day, so you plan and practise elements of a real Kaizen event and apply the tools to realistic process scenarios rather than only learning the theory.

    Does the course cover both daily Kaizen and Kaizen events?
