Kanban Maturity Model

We invite you to the training course "Kanban Maturity Model" (KMM). KMM model appeared as a result of summarizing and structuring the work of multiple Kanban coaches with different organizations. Essence and learning of that work formed a KMM model. It provides you with a structured way to introduce or improve Kanban in an organization. In this class, you are going to learn this structured approach. This course is the official training class of Kanban University, founded by David Anderson – author of the Kanban method. All participants will receive an official internationally recognized certificate of attendance from Kanban University.

Target Audience

This class is a “next step” in the Kanban learning roadmap. It is required that all visitors had Kanban Management Professional (KMP) designation, meaning that they had visited both Kanban System Design (KSD) and Kanban Management Professional (KMP) classes.

Training is particularly suitable for those who:

  • want to understand deeper concepts behind the Kanban method;
  • are going to implement Kanban in their work environment.

Besides that, training helps build the structure of understanding of Kanban principles and practices for all participants and introduces a common "language" of terms – equally understand the terms, practices, and, most importantly, the purpose of process improvement using Kanban systems.

The format of the ONLINE training

The training course program is expanded by preliminary self-training and "homework." This allows the most efficient use of time in the training sessions for discussions, and individual and group exercises.
This training incorporates many concepts of "training from the back of the room", in which the participants say and do more than the instructor: short blocks of theory alternate with practice and exercises.
The course is delivered ONLINE via a series of modules of 3-4 hours duration each. The two most popular delivery schedules are listed below.

OPTION #1

Week 1
Friday: Module 1

Week 2
Monday: Module 2
Tuesday: Module 3
Wednesday: Module 4
Thursday: Module 5
Friday: Module 6

OPTION #2

Week 1
Monday: Module 1
Tuesday: Module 2
Wednesday: Module 3

Modules could be held in the first or second half of the day, depending on your preference (and availability, of course). Other schedule formats (than those listed above) are available upon request.

Old fashioned offline (classroom) delivery (3-day class) is possible depending on the epidemiologic situation, regulations, and travel logistics.
