    Frequently Asked QuestionsHere's everything you may ask...

    Poka Yoke training is a one-day, practical course that teaches mistake-proofing (error-proofing): designing processes so defects are prevented at source or caught immediately. It suits quality engineers, manufacturing and process engineers, production supervisors, Lean practitioners and anyone responsible for defect prevention.

    General

    What is Poka Yoke training and who is it for?

    Poka Yoke training is a one-day, practical course that teaches mistake-proofing (error-proofing): designing processes so defects are prevented at source or caught immediately. It suits quality engineers, manufacturing and process engineers, production supervisors, Lean practitioners and anyone responsible for defect prevention.

    What does Poka Yoke mean?

    Poka Yoke is a Japanese term where poka means an inadvertent mistake and yoke means to avoid or prevent. It was developed by Shigeo Shingo as part of the Toyota Production System and is now a core Lean and Six Sigma quality technique used worldwide.

    Is Poka Yoke training worth it for professionals in Czechia?

    Yes. Czechia's automotive, electronics and engineering employers place high value on people who can prevent defects rather than only inspect for them. Mistake-proofing skills reduce rework and scrap, and support roles from quality engineer to continuous improvement lead.

    Do I need any prior experience or qualifications?

    No. There are no formal prerequisites. Some familiarity with quality concepts such as defects and inspection is helpful but not required, as the course introduces every Poka Yoke principle from first principles.

    How long is the Poka Yoke course?

    The course runs for one day (eight hours), covering Poka Yoke foundations, human error analysis, mistake-proofing types, the six-step design process, real case studies and implementation, with hands-on exercises throughout.

    Pricing

    How much does Poka Yoke training cost in Czechia?

    Fees depend on the delivery format (live online, classroom or corporate on-site) and group size. For current pricing in your preferred format, request a quote and a learning advisor will share the latest options.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes instructor-led training across all six modules, hands-on exercises, real-world case studies, course materials and a course completion record from Invensis Learning. Ask your advisor for the exact inclusions of your chosen format.

    Do you offer group or corporate pricing?

    Yes. Corporate on-site and group training is available with tailored schedules and volume-based pricing for teams. It is especially cost-effective because your team designs mistake-proofing solutions for your own processes. Contact us for a group quote.

    Are there payment or instalment options?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, with instalment options on selected plans. Speak to a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Is there any ongoing or renewal cost?

    No. Poka Yoke is a practical skill with no renewal requirement and nothing to maintain. Once you complete the training, the techniques are yours to apply, and the learning does not expire.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam at the end of the Poka Yoke course?

    No. This is a non-examination skills course. Instead of a test, learning is reinforced through hands-on error identification and mistake-proofing design exercises, case studies and group discussion during the day.

    Do I receive a formal credential after the course?

    Poka Yoke has no external awarding body, so no formal credential is granted. You receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning, and you gain practical mistake-proofing skills you can use straight away.

    How is my learning assessed?

    There is no formal assessment. You apply the techniques throughout the day in practical exercises, designing Poka Yoke solutions for realistic process scenarios so you can put them to work immediately.

    Will I be able to apply Poka Yoke straight after the course?

    Yes. You leave able to identify error-prone steps, classify errors, choose prevention or detection mechanisms, apply the six-step design process and validate solutions, and lead mistake-proofing workshops with your team.

    How does Poka Yoke fit with Lean, Six Sigma and ISO 9001?

    Poka Yoke is a key Lean tool and is applied in the Six Sigma Improve phase to make solutions error-proof. It also supports ISO 9001:2015 risk-based thinking and nonconformity prevention, so it complements your existing quality system.

    Course Content

    What topics does the Poka Yoke training cover?

    The programme covers six modules: Poka Yoke foundations and the cost of defects, human error and error types, Poka Yoke classification, the six-step design process, real case studies, and implementing mistake-proofing in your organisation.

    What are the main types of Poka Yoke I will learn?

    You will learn prevention-type (control) mechanisms that make errors impossible and detection-type (warning) mechanisms that flag errors immediately, plus the three detection methods: contact, fixed-value and motion-step.

    Are there hands-on exercises and case studies?

    Yes. Practical error identification and Poka Yoke design exercises run throughout the day, supported by worked case studies from automotive, electronics, healthcare and service operations.

    Is Poka Yoke only for manufacturing?

    No. While it began in manufacturing, mistake-proofing applies anywhere human error causes problems, including healthcare, logistics, financial services, food production and IT. The course includes examples from several sectors.

    What materials will I receive?

    You receive structured course materials covering all six modules, exercise templates, case studies and reference guides, plus a course completion record from Invensis Learning once you finish the programme.

    Enrollment

    How do I enrol in the Poka Yoke course?

    You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and you will receive access to the schedule, joining details and course materials. A learning advisor can help you pick the right option.

    What delivery formats are available?

    The training is available as live online (virtual instructor-led), classroom and corporate on-site sessions, so you can choose the format that best fits your schedule and team. See upcoming schedules or ask an advisor for dates.

    Can the course be delivered on-site for my team in Czechia?

    Yes. Corporate on-site delivery is available for teams across Czechia. It is ideal for training cross-functional groups together so they can design mistake-proofing solutions for your real processes during the session.

    How soon can I start?

    New public sessions run regularly in live online and classroom formats, and corporate sessions are scheduled around your team's availability. Check upcoming batches or talk to a learning advisor to find the earliest suitable date.

    What is your reschedule or cancellation policy?
