    What Is Kanban and How Does It Improve Flow?Your Practical Guide to Pull-Based Work

    Kanban Training is a hands-on, non-certification course that teaches you to design and run pull-based systems that move work only when real demand calls for it. Rooted in the Toyota Production System developed by Taiichi Ohno, and later adapted for knowledge work by David J. Anderson, Kanban helps you cut overproduction, limit work in progress, and speed up delivery. This one-day program suits production managers, supply chain professionals, Scrum Masters, Agile coaches, IT and software delivery leaders, and anyone who manages the flow of work. You learn manufacturing Kanban (cards, supermarkets, and sizing) and Agile Kanban (boards, WIP limits, and flow metrics) side by side, with practical exercises throughout. You leave able to apply the method the next day, with a course completion record from Invensis Learning to mark your progress.

    Skills You Will Build in This CoursePractical Kanban from Day One

    This program helps you build practical, applied capability across both manufacturing Kanban and Agile Kanban. By the end, you can design, size, run, and improve pull-based systems in a production line or a knowledge-work team.

    Design Pull-Based Production Systems

    This course teaches you hands-on Kanban skills you can use immediately. You learn how production and withdrawal kanban work together in a closed-loop pull system, plus one-bin, two-bin, and electronic Kanban, so upstream work is authorized only by real downstream demand.

    Size Kanban Systems Correctly

    Calculate kanban quantities and the number of kanban cards using takt time, demand rate, replenishment lead time, and a safety factor, so your supermarkets hold only the inventory the system truly needs and no more.

    Build and Manage Kanban Boards

    Design boards with the right columns, swimlanes, classes of service, and a clear Definition of Done for knowledge work, IT, and software delivery, making the whole workflow visible to the team at a glance.

    Set and Use WIP Limits

    Apply work-in-progress limits to stop starting and start finishing. You learn to set initial limits, spot bottlenecks, and adjust limits from flow data to keep value moving through every stage.

    Measure Flow with Metrics and the CFD

    Measure lead time, cycle time, and throughput, apply Little's Law, and read the cumulative flow diagram to find where work accumulates and forecast delivery with confidence.

    Implement and Sustain Kanban

    Roll out Kanban using the start-with-what-you-do-now approach, run Scrumban alongside Scrum, and keep the system healthy over time so improvement opportunities surface automatically.
