ABOUT THE COURSE

Lean Construction is driven to minimize costs and maximize value on each project completed, challenging all stakeholders to develop and apply better ways to manage the overall construction process.

The updated AGC Lean Construction Education Program, 2nd Edition engages students with numerous activities and group discussions designed to apply Lean Construction principles and practices.  The many hands-on activities help participants to understand and make practical application of what they are learning. You will see how to identify and remove waste from everyday processes, improve your ability to efficiently plan and execute work, improve jobsite organization, communication, and problem-solving skills. And students will get hands-on practice using the Last Planner System in a simulation that teaches teams to create predictable workflow and rapid learning.

After participants complete all five units in the program, they become eligible to sit for an exam to earn the Certificate of Management - Lean Construction (CM-Lean).

Unit 1 - Introduction to Lean Construction
Unit 2 - Process and Production Basics
Unit 3 - Project Production Systems
Unit 4 - Lean Thinking in Field Production, Last Planner System
Unit 5 - Lean Thinking Outside of Field Production
