Certified Lean Practitioner Badge — Kaizen Academy
The Problem

You know lean works.
You just can't prove it — yet.

Most professionals have been exposed to lean through workshops and online videos. But without structured training, a real project, and a recognised credential, the knowledge stays invisible — and so does the career progression that should come with it.

What You'll Gain

Why this programme changes things

A structured path from practitioner to certified leader — with real-world application built in from day one.

A Credential That Signals Real Capability

Earn a Lean Practitioner Certificate issued by Kaizen Academy Australia — one you've earned through a real project, not just a multiple-choice test.

One-to-One Project Coaching

Work directly with Ahmed on a real improvement project from your own workplace. Not a simulation — actual results you can point to.

Deep, Structured Curriculum

TPS fundamentals, value stream mapping, A3 thinking, and the 7 QC tools — built for practitioners who need to apply it, not just recall it.

Learn at Your Own Pace

Self-paced modules designed to fit around full-time work. Access the content when it suits you — evenings, weekends, wherever you are.

Proven Across Any Industry

Lean applies universally. The tools and thinking you'll develop work in manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, services, and beyond.

Lifetime Access & Support

Your enrolment doesn't expire. Revisit the content, return to your coaching materials, and refresh your knowledge whenever you need it.

The Programme

What you'll cover

Three rigorous learning modules, a coached workplace project, and a certification exam.

One-to-One Project Coaching

This is what separates the Kaizen Academy Practitioner Programme from every other lean course available online. You'll apply your learning to a real improvement project from your workplace, with direct coaching from Ahmed throughout the process. The A3 project you complete becomes evidence — something you own and can point to in every future job application, performance review, or professional conversation.

  • Structured coaching sessions with Ahmed
  • Proven A3 templates and frameworks
  • Real project, real results
  • Feedback at every stage
Certification Exam

Your Instructor
Ahmed Radwan — Kaizen Academy

Ahmed Radwan

Founder, Kaizen Academy · Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt

Ahmed has spent 15+ years in lean manufacturing and operational excellence — on the floor, in the boardroom, and in the classroom. He's trained 5,000+ professionals across the globe and helped organisations deliver over $120M in measurable business impact.

He founded Kaizen Academy because he believed the available training wasn't good enough. Too shallow. Too generic. Not built for people who actually need to go back to work on Monday and make something change.

When you join the Practitioner Programme, you get direct coaching from Ahmed — not a platform algorithm, not a forum thread.

  • Project Management Professional (PMP)
  • Professional Scrum Master I (Scrum.org)

Ahmed is a delight to work with. He clearly has a deep grasp of lean and The Toyota Way — and an exceptional ability to synthesise key points and connect them to engaging content.

Ahmed has established an awesome presence articulating lean visuals and concepts that has helped me enhance my own materials — and many others grow in their role. Thanks Ahmed for all your hard work in the Lean Community.
