Reasons to start this journey
We want you to be sure that this course is the right choice for you, so here’s a list of reasons to pick this course. If those don’t resonate at all, no need to worry! There’s plenty of courses to choose from.
Simple, useful and widely applicable
Value Stream Mapping is one of the most accessible and user-friendly tools in the Lean Six Sigma methodology. This simple technique helps you expose the waste in any process. Whether you are improving a mail sorting system or re-programming a computer system, VSM can be applied to any type of process.
Gain a complete and realistic overview of your process
With Value Stream Mapping you can get a total overview of the entire process, as opposed to just a limited understanding of separate components. Talking past each other during a meeting or project will be a thing of the past. Value Stream Mapping will allow you to create a shared and complete understanding of the process so that you can easily work together to solve the problem.
The most popular Lean tool (with good reason)
Very few tools can match Value Stream Mapping in popularity. VSM is used in almost every Lean Six Sigma project or method in order to gain insight into processes and to map improvement potential. Its greatest strength is that it can be done in just a day or less and always yields results. To master Lean Six Sigma, this tool is absolutely essential.
The world's leading provider of Lean Six Sigma education
This Value Stream Mapping course was developed together with the Master Black Belts and Lean Experts of The Lean Six Sigma Company. Together, we translated their years of experience with Value Stream Mapping into a concise and practice-oriented online course, based on the independent ISO 18404 and ISO 13053 standards.

Certification
Upon finishing this course you will be awarded with an official Value Stream Mapping certificate of completion from The Lean Six Sigma Company.
This certification serves as proof that you know everything about Value Stream Mapping that you need to know in order to apply it in practice and facilitate a Value Stream Mapping session by yourself.
What will you learn?
How to create your own Value Stream Map
You’ll learn what elements a Value Stream Map needs to contain in order to effectively map a process and bring insight into the stream of value and materials throughout the process. You will be presented with The Lean Six Sigma Company’s VSM template and given advice on how to adopt this and create your own version.
The many uses and strengths of the VSM
You’ll learn what the tool can really be used for; what its strengths are and how to employ them to get the optimal result out of your Value Stream Mapping session.
How to facilitate a Value Stream Map session
You’ll learn what it takes to not just make a Value Stream Map, but also facilitate a group into constructive discussion and lead a collaborative effort to improve a process. To understand a VSM by yourself is easy, but the true added value of the VSM is when you transform a team’s different viewpoints and understandings of the process into one comprehensive shared reality.

The course was clear to follow. I especially appreciated the option to read the text instead of watch the videos. Main improvement would be more industry examples of VSM.
