Online Course Materials: In addition to live online training sessions, participants will have access to online, self-paced learning materials via our dedicated learning portal. These resources include course videos and reading assignments, offering flexibility in learning and review.

Note: Participants should allocate time for self-paced learning when planning for the course.

Upon successful completion of the course, participants will receive certification from Kanban University for completion of Kanban System Design.

To receive certificates, participants must attend and actively engage in all sessions of the course. This includes completing all hands-on exercises, simulations, and group discussions.

Participants who continue on learning with the Kanban for Design and Innovation or Kanban Systems Improvement course also receive the prestigious Kanban Management Professional (KMP) credential, demonstrating their proficiency in Kanban methodology and its application in system design and innovation. The KMP credential is widely recognized within the agile and lean communities, enhancing professional credibility and marketability. KMPs may be eligible for continuing education credits or professional development units (PDUs), allowing them to maintain and enhance their skills over time.

While no prior courses are required, it's beneficial to have read foundational texts on Kanban, such as "Kanban: Successful Evolutionary Change for Your Technology Business" by David J. Anderson or "Kanban from the Inside" by Mike Burrows. This background reading will provide a deeper understanding of Kanban principles and their application.
