Industrial Training

In an increasingly competitive and complicated world Forward Vision training programmes cut through the maze of available learning choices and promise simply to help staff at all levels and in all disciplines do their jobs and acquire new skills and techniques.

A satisfying and rewarding project gives us scope to share our knowledge of competitive disciplines and techniques with our clients. In such cases managers, supervisors, commercial and technical support specialists and direct production teams continue to make improvements - long after we've gone.

The ranges of subjects and disciplines is diverse and the following list is far from exhaustive:

	SMED/OTED/Fast changeover techniques		JIT & Cellular manufacturing techniques (inc. line layout improvement)
	Waste and waste elimination		Production control systems and kan ban
	Poka Yoke		Standard Operations and work standardisation
	Cost reduction techniques		Total Productive Maintenance
	Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) improvement		Quick Response Quality Control and First Time Quality
	Value stream mapping		Kaizen techniques

Our training programmes are down-to-earth and practical and are supported by high quality literature and materials. All are carried out in the workplace - addressing real operational problems.

Our trainers are experienced practitioners from among the world's finest manufacturing companies. They understand both manufacturing and learning processes. They understand the challenges of modern, competitive production and have faced them themselves.

Our programmes are purged of 'training speak', pretentiousness and cheap psychology. No leap of faith is required to put theory into practice. Our methods combine classroom-based learning with practical implementation in the workplace and the benefits of our programmes can be directly converted into bottom-line results.
