Description

Value Stream Mapping enables you to understand how your process works and identify areas that need improvement. Like many tools used in Lean Six Sigma, this approach has its foundations in working with people to build an improvement culture, rather than simply imposing a change.

This eLearning course is designed to give you a strong awareness through interactive modules, including quizzes and a variety of media. The course includes a multiple-choice exam and you will receive certification upon successful completion.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
