Companies and participants remain flexible with online training
Expanding and developing the online offering is currently at the top of the agenda for MTM Academy and MTM Institute. The two teams, which first launched MTM-1 Base as an e-learning course and have since completely converted the MTM and EAWS practitioner training and the MTM and EAWS instructor qualification to the webinar format, are currently putting the finishing touches to the latest product. Only so much can be revealed here: The second training via e-learning is about to start. That means participation at any time, anywhere in the world. "This flexibility is the order of the day," says Dr. Thomas Finsterbusch, head of the MTM Academy, referring to the current pandemic-related restrictions.
A new feature of the program is the opportunity to become an MTM practitioner by completing MTM-Logistics training and thus acquire the Blue Card. Building on the MTM-1 Base course, the MTM-Practitioner course is completed either in 5 days of MTM-Logistics followed by practical application - or, building on the MTM-UAS course already completed, in 2.5 days of MTM-Logistics (standard operations).
The 5-day MTM Logistics training contains:
- The MTM-UAS process module system and its development background
- Principles of development as well as structure and content of the MTM-UAS basic processes and the MTM-UAS standard processes
- Rules for the uniform and appropriate application of the MTM-UAS basic processes
- Principles of development as well as structure and content of MTM Standard Operations Logistics
- Rules for the uniform and appropriate application of MTM standard logistics processes
- Optimizing and designing logistics processes
The 2.5-day MTM-Logistics (Standard Operations) training contains:
- Principles of development as well as structure and content of MTM standard operations Logistics
- Rules for the uniform and appropriate application of MTM standard logistics processes
- Optimizing and designing logistics processes
The advantages:
- No matter which path a participant takes, there is a full certificate at the end.
- Compared to 2019, the training duration is reduced from three to two weeks.
- For MTM Instructors, there is for the first time the option of an additional teaching authorization for MTM-Logistics (in the case of in-house training).
- In the case of in-house training, company-specific practical examples can also be integrated.
- Refresher training for the Blue Card is possible in only one process module system - i.e. also in MTM-Logistics.
The offer "with MTM-Logistics to become an MTM-Practitioner" applies everywhere in the world thanks to the uniform handling in the One-MTM partner network.
Many companies have used the past months to have their in-house MTM Instructors brought up to date by the MTM ASSOCIATION e. V. In the courses for license renewal, it was not only the building block systems, the new training formats or the changes in the training and examination regulations that were on the (virtual) agenda. Of particular interest to MTM Instructors at Daimler and BMW, for example, were the opportunities offered by the One-MTM partner network for qualification at international production sites.
