What Is Kaizen and Why It Matters in Latvian WorkplacesYour Path to Continuous Improvement

Kaizen Training in Latvia is a practical, hands-on skills programme that teaches professionals how to drive continuous improvement through small, incremental, team-based changes. Kaizen, a Japanese term meaning change for the better, is a core discipline of the Toyota Production System (TPS) and Lean management, popularised worldwide by Masaaki Imai in his 1986 book Kaizen: The Key to Japan's Competitive Success.

Over a focused one-day programme, you learn to plan and facilitate structured Kaizen events, apply the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle, spot the eight wastes of Lean at the Gemba, and lock in gains with 5S and standard work. The training suits operations managers, team leaders, quality engineers and Lean coordinators in Latvia's manufacturing, food processing, pharmaceutical and logistics sectors, where heavy export exposure and rising labour costs make efficiency a priority.

Delivered in live virtual, classroom and corporate formats by Invensis Learning, this course builds capability you can apply on the job from day one. Start building a continuous improvement mindset with Invensis Learning.

What Is Driving Demand for Continuous Improvement in Latvia

Export Competitiveness Pressure

Latvia exports around 65% of its manufacturing output, so producers must match Western European quality and cost. Kaizen helps teams strip out waste and defend margins.

Kaizen builds waste-elimination skills

Rising Labour Costs and Shortages

With the minimum wage now EUR 780 a month and skilled workers scarce, employers must do more with the same team. Daily Kaizen raises productivity without extra headcount.

Kaizen lifts productivity per person

Move to High-Value Manufacturing

As Latvia shifts into photonics, smart materials and green tech, tighter process control is essential. Kaizen builds the discipline to stabilise complex, high-precision production.

Kaizen builds process-control discipline

Supply Chain Delivery Reliability

Automotive and electronics customers expect on-time, defect-free delivery. Structured Kaizen events cut lead times and smooth flow across the value stream.

Kaizen improves flow and lead time

Energy and Cost Efficiency

High energy prices squeeze operating margins across Baltic industry. Kaizen tackles overproduction, waiting and excess inventory to free up cash and capacity.

Kaizen targets hidden waste and cost

Making Improvement Gains Stick

Many Latvian firms run improvement projects that quietly revert. Kaizen embeds 5S, standard work and daily habits so gains hold long after the event ends.

Kaizen

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

Kaizen is a Japanese continuous improvement philosophy meaning change for the better, rooted in the Toyota Production System. This practical training teaches you to plan and run structured Kaizen events, apply the PDCA cycle, and use Lean tools such as 5S and standard work to eliminate waste.

General

What is Kaizen and what does this training cover?

Is Kaizen training worth it for professionals in Latvia?

Yes. With Latvia's industry exporting most of its output and facing rising labour costs, employers value people who can cut waste and improve process flow. Kaizen skills apply immediately in manufacturing, food processing, pharma, logistics and services.

Who should attend this Kaizen course?

The training suits operations and production managers, team leaders, quality engineers, Lean coordinators and continuous improvement professionals. It fits any sector in Latvia where teams want structured, sustainable process improvement.

Do I need prior Lean experience to join?

No. There are no prerequisites. The course introduces every concept from first principles, so beginners and experienced practitioners both benefit. Some familiarity with Lean is helpful but not required.

How is Kaizen different from a one-off improvement project?

Kaizen focuses on small, continuous, team-based improvements made every day, alongside focused Kaizen events, rather than large infrequent changes. This makes gains more sustainable and engages the whole team in ongoing improvement.

Pricing

How much does Kaizen training in Latvia cost?

Pricing depends on the delivery format, whether live virtual, classroom or corporate onsite, and the group size. Fees are quoted in euros for learners in Latvia. Contact us for current pricing, or request a quote for group and team rates.

What is included in the course fee?

The fee covers instructor-led training across all six Kaizen modules, hands-on event simulations, learning materials and templates, a course completion record from Invensis Learning, and post-training support.

Do you offer group or corporate rates?

Yes. We offer tailored corporate and group pricing for teams trained together onsite or live virtual. This is often the best value for organisations. Ask about corporate and group pricing for your team.

Are there any additional costs?

No third-party or testing fees apply to this practical training, so there is nothing beyond the course fee. Any optional add-ons are confirmed upfront, with no hidden charges.

What payment options are available?

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

Assessment

Is there a formal test at the end of the course?

No. Kaizen training is practical skills training with no formal test to pass. Learning is reinforced through hands-on Kaizen event simulations, team activities and group discussion throughout the programme.

Do I receive anything on completion?

Yes. You receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning once you finish the one-day programme. The training builds practical Kaizen facilitation skills you can apply at work immediately.

How is my learning assessed?

Through hands-on practice rather than a formal test. You plan and practise elements of a Kaizen event using realistic scenarios, so you demonstrate the skills during the session itself.

Is this a formal credential programme?

No. There is no governing body for the Kaizen methodology, so this is practical skills training rather than a credential programme. It builds capability grounded in the Toyota Production System and Lean management.

Will these skills expire or need renewal?

No. The Kaizen skills you learn are immediately applicable and do not expire, and there is nothing to renew. You can keep applying and deepening them on the job straight away.

Course Content

What will I learn in the Kaizen training?

You will learn to plan and facilitate structured Kaizen events, apply the PDCA cycle, identify the eight wastes of Lean at the Gemba, run root cause analysis with 5 Whys and fishbone diagrams, and sustain gains with 5S and standard work.

What topics and modules are covered?

The programme covers six modules: the Kaizen philosophy, the PDCA cycle and thinking tools, planning a Kaizen event, running an event phase by phase, Kaizen tools in practice, and sustaining a continuous improvement culture.

Is the training hands-on or theory-based?

It is highly hands-on. Workshop simulation exercises run throughout, so you practise planning and facilitating a Kaizen event on realistic process scenarios rather than only learning concepts.

What standards and frameworks does it draw on?

The course is grounded in the Toyota Production System and Lean management, the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle popularised by Masaaki Imai, and related practices such as 5S, value stream mapping and the eight wastes of Lean.

How long is the Kaizen training?

The programme runs for one day (eight hours), covering all six modules with concept explanations, real-world examples and hands-on simulations. A half-day format across two days is also available.

Enrollment

How do I enrol in the Kaizen course in Latvia?

You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and you will receive access to schedules, materials and joining details. Talk to a learning advisor if you need help choosing.

What training formats are available?

We offer online (live virtual) instructor-led training, classroom sessions, and customised corporate onsite training for teams across Latvia, so you can pick the format that fits your schedule.

Can the course be delivered onsite for our team?

Yes. Corporate onsite delivery lets a cross-functional team train together and run a Kaizen event on your own real processes during the session, which is especially effective for organisations.

How soon can I start?

New batches run regularly in live virtual and classroom formats. Contact us to see upcoming schedules for Latvia and reserve your place, or arrange a corporate session on dates that suit your team.

What is the reschedule or cancellation policy?
