4 The productivity equation demands a healthy balance between people and technology. Dr. Theodor Niehaus. The relentless competitive pressure in industry demands that all stakeholders in skills in particular manufacturing companies and the training organisations that serve them optimise their productivity in order to survive and flourish. Our training will improve the performance of your technology, your organisation and your people. Festo is a global engineering and manufacturing company that maintains its own global training and consulting teams for both internal and external customers. Operating in the same economic sector and climate as our customers, we have experience of the challenges and opportunities that gives us a level of understanding and insight rare among training providers. We practice what we teach. To effectively synchronise the contents and aims of in-house courses with your business objectives, we can conduct a comprehensive analysis about the training needs of your employees. On completion of the analysis, you receive a detailed report about the current knowledge levels of your employees and a competence development plan which addresses the key business aims. The training is not only the traditional one-time, face-to-face training you might expect. It is available as web-based training (WBT) or as blended learning, a customised mix of face-to-face and WBT to fit your training and logistical needs. Lastly there is a solution that is a mix of these with a project for the improvement of a KPI on the shop-floor. Whether a public course or customised in-house course, our training is competency-based in order to ensure the benefits for each stakeholder are clear provide the before and after snapshots of skills essential to measure improvement and make the return on investment transparent complement the competency matrix approach to improving individual and team performance foster a will to achieve in both trainer and trainees provide orientation and a resulting sense of achievement We would be pleased to offer you our training support and hope that this catalogue will be a first step towards successful training and your increased productivity. 4

6 We practice what we teach Training in technology and productivity from a global engineering and manufacturing company Manufacturing know-how Globally qualified trainers Methods and formats Festo is both a global engineering and manufacturing company and training and consulting organisation with experienced instructors and consultants. This gives us insight into the challenges and opportunities not normally available to training providers. We practice what we teach. And we can use this experience to help you optimise the two parts of the productivity equation people and technology. Our networks of qualified trainers in the fields of, Organisation and People share resources and best practices and contribute to continuous improvement and development of new products to address customer needs. Our trainers draw on the entire range of methods and formats from an interactive presentation for a large group to the coaching of individuals in a production teams. The competency-based approach means that the training outcomes are clear to all stakeholders. 6

7 Improving the people part of productivity Our approach is competencybased getting people fit for productivity What we train Festo offers a wide scope of training services covering three skills areas,, Organisation and People and the three factors in productivity, Quality, Time and Cost. Training is based on customer needs, for example: Help with the introduction of a new technology Mastery of all skills needed to serve a production cell Organisation Establish or improve continuous improvement process Introduction of Kanban People Improvement in communication e.g. operator/maintenance Improvement of problemsolving techniques Quality Heighten individuals sensitivity to quality Reduction of rework and reject rate Time Reduce set-up time Minimise unplanned downtime Costs Reduce waste Reduce capital in work in progress How we train Our training is competencybased, which means that benefits for all stakeholders are clear before and after snapshots of skills make the ROI transparent complements competency matrix approach to improving individual performance fosters a will to achieve in both trainer and trainees provides orientation and a sense of achievement in technology training, handson exercise with industrial components reinforces the transfer of new skills 7

8 Getting exactly the right training With our training formats and services we can respond flexibly to meet your needs The training format whether public or in-house, a course, workshop, best-practice event or corporate strategy games the focus is always on first-hand experience. In both public and customised training, the outcomes are transparent to all stakeholders, and allow them to track progress towards achieving the required competencies. Rapid transfer to daily practice is a key quality criterion we help you to measure and optimise this. Standard training In public course, a predefined set of competencies are transferred. Approximately 42,000 course participants attend over nearly 3,000 of our public courses worldwide every year. Our trainers deliver modular and quality-assured training in 39 languages. Customised training There are three levels to customised training: Customised coursed designed to achieve agreed outcomes are generally in-house to provide customers with a greater focus on the requirements of their business, increased flexibility and reduced expenses, often with the advantage of no travel for participants. If you are not sure which skills profile a team needs, our Training Needs Analysis (TNA) will identify the skills and audit current skills in a report. To optimise transfer, a Post Course Review can be run a few weeks after training this audits the upgraded skills set against the original profile. Competence development projects If your customised training exceeds the scope of a single course, qualification programs can be established. These comprise several courses with time between that allow transfer to the workplace and integration of in-house projects with targets such as optimising set-up time on a machine. 8
