Lean Learning Academy in Rzeszow University of Technology
In Rzeszow University of Technology the Lean Learning Academy (LLA) is organized. The main goal of LLA is to teach students and employees of companies lean tools to introduce lean manufacturing in enterprises.
Lean manufacturing means identifying and eliminating wastes. This can be done using simple methods and analytical tools or using sophisticated computer systems that monitor manufacturing systems in real time and identify symptoms that may lead to problems and, consequently, wastes.

We have lectures and workshops with the students who study Management and Production Engineering and Mechanics and Mechanical Engineering on Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Aeronautic in Rzeszow University of Technology.
