Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Course – Treasure Valley – 1/17, 1/31, 2/14, and 3/6 of 2024

Idaho Small Business Development Center 5465 E. Terra Linda Way, Nampa, ID, United States

TechHelp and the Idaho Manufacturing Alliance will offer a Public Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Course at the SBDC Accelerator in Nampa with full-day sessions on 1/17, 1/31, 2/14, and 3/6 of 2024. Lean Six Sigma (LSS) is a well-known approach for achieving operational excellence that does more than simply improve production processes. LSS combines the process improvement benefits of Lean with the statistical process control (SPC) benefits of Six Sigma. It takes advantage of the “value-added” focus of Lean while maintaining the statistical rigors of Six Sigma. This series will include four full-day training sessions with two weeks between sessions for participants to complete project work that is an essential part of the LSSGB program. This popular course will fill fast so save your seat ASAP.

Internal Auditing for Food Processors – Live Online

Live Online

Internal Audits are a requirement of all GFSI approved certification schemes (e.g. SQF, BRC, FSSC 22000, etc.) and many 3rd party audit programs. Internal audits allow you to audit your facility for gaps and compliance. They are an important tool in the ongoing food safety toolbox for any food manufacturer, packager, and warehouse and distribution company.

This course will provide you with the knowledge and skills required to conduct an internal audit program within your company. The course covers the fundamentals of auditing, useful industry-proven techniques, compliance criteria, how to foster good communication within the facility, the importance of auditor ethics, and gathering objective evidence, nonconformities, and reporting suggestions. This course is for those who are new to internal auditing and those that could use a refresher course.
