Learning programme to create fitter factories
August 20th 2007

A new Certificate in Manufacturing has been launched by The Manufacturing Institute to equip manufacturers with the skills to accelerate transformation in their factories.

Over the past decade The Manufacturing Institute’s Diploma in Manufacturing has provided a development opportunity for those eager to drive business improvement and advance their careers. Now it is also being offered on a more flexible, modular basis – so that manufacturers can select specific areas of learning.

There is also the option to go on to complete the entire Diploma programme– thereby qualifying for the higher level award of Diploma, which is quality assured by The University of Manchester on behalf of all the Greater Manchester Universities. This offers successful delegates an academic progression to study at Masters level.

The Certificate in Manufacturing comprises seven manufacturing education modules, which cover all the essential aspects of world class manufacturing, from strategic decision making, through tools and techniques for lean and quality performance, to performance measurement, project management, supply chain innovation and IT and automation.

Other study options include three personal effectiveness modules, to help students lead and manage change and develop themselves and others; followed by four business awareness modules covering economics, enterprise, marketing and finance.
