LEAN DAILY TRAINING SESSIONS is an alternative Lean manufacturing training program consisting of 26-weekly training modules, which are presented daily to rank and file employees by a company's Team Leaders during regular stand-up meetings - allowing team members to remain on the shop floor, thus reducing employee "down time" for training. The key component of the program is the administration of brief (5-7 minute), daily learning activities for all employees at any level of employment. Structured, comprehensive training sessions are scheduled as follows: Monday-Wednesday: 5-7-minute lesson presentations. Thursday: Quiz. Friday: practical application of concepts and principles studied are carried out on the shop floor. The program calls for weekly, quarterly, semi-annual and annual testing, leading to certification of Lean Levels One, Two and Three.

The program is based on two training manuals, one for Leaders presenting weekly lessons, and one for each employees to be kept at their workstation and used for on-going study and reference. Each training manual contains 'lesson reading material, study questions, Suggestions for implementation day activities, Quizzes,'' photos, charts, graphs, tables, and case studies.' The training program cannot be implemented without the copyrighted training manuals.
