They are being provided with the backing of the Skills Funding Agency or organisations which meet the entry criteria.

It said over a 12 month apprenticeship period, five lean management business improvement modules will be delivered.

Participants skills should be developed through a combination of workshop-based interactive learning and the creation of practical “lean” projects within their business. This leads up to a final presentation session where projects are presented to the other participating teams and senior figures from within their organisation.

Director of Holt Green Training Mike Smith said: “Lean management creates more customer value while lowering costs and improving profits.

“For instance, a hotel saved 5,728 man hours and improved its customer care while a hire company increased its productivity and realised £50,000 a year savings.

“Application for these fully funded apprenticeships will be only available for a limited period during January 2017 and organisations interested in pursuing them are encouraged to make their enquiries as early as possible”.

Holt Green Training has been providing training services for the past 10 years.

Two years ago the business became part of the RKMS Group and relocated to the Business First Centre on Amy Johnson Way from the Solaris Centre on Blackpool’s South Promenade in 2015.
