BUSINESS CALENDAR ANNOUNCEMENT

MassMEP Lean Collaborative Program For Small Manufacturers Begins April 25

MassMEP in partnership with UMass Dartmouth kicks off a three-month training program with an introductory session on Tuesday, April 25 to help small or medium-sized manufacturers implement Lean techniques at their facilities.

Manufacturers from across Massachusetts will participate in interactive workshops and on-site facilitation days. Teams will also share their best practices in implementing Lean tools and techniques and apply them at their companies.

The goal of the program is to provide a low-cost way for small and medium-sized manufacturers to provide their employees with Lean training. Workforce Training Grants are available to help offset costs.

To participate in the Lean Manufacturing Collaborative Introductory Session, contact Kathie Mahoney at 508-831-7020 or kathiem@massmep.org.
