CONTINUOUS PROCESS IMPROVEMENT CERTIFICATE PROGRAM

“When people and organizations focus primarily on quality, quality tends to increase and costs fall over time. However, when people and organizations focus primarily on costs, costs tend to rise and quality declines over time.” – W. Edwards Deming

Quality is a never ending quest and Continuous Process Improvement (CPI) is a never ending effort to discover and eliminate the main causes of problems. It accomplishes this by using small-steps improvements, rather than implementing one huge improvement. When we engage in process improvement, we seek to learn what causes things to happen.

Northampton Community College’s Center for Business & Industry is offering a Continuous Process Improvement Certificate Program. The program is designed to give your employees the knowledge and skills to implement a CPI program at your organization. CBI’s program consists of 6 Core Competencies/Required Courses. Other Continuous Process Improvement related courses are available. Course substitutions may be allowed on a case by case basis.

This Certificate Program teaches employees how to:

◆◆ Reduce variation ◆◆ Remove activities that have no value to the organization◆◆ Improve customer satisfaction

Six (6) required programs to earn the Continuous Process Improvement Certificate with 4.8 Continuing Education Units (CEUs).

ECONOMICS OF SAFETY CERTIFICATE

The motivation to implement required safety and health practices sometimes diminishes within the context of production schedules. When production is viewed as the priority above safety standards, the illusion of cost savings can quickly be replaced by the sobering realities associated with a workplace incident that causes a death or severe injury. The impact to the bottom line can be devastating. Information and awareness is a proactive way to avoid workplace tragedies while protecting the profitability of the organization.

Five (5) required programs to earn the Economics of Safety Certificate with 1.0 Continuing Education Units (CEUs).

Required Programs:◆◆ Assessing the Cost of Workplace Accidents◆◆ Assessing Hazards and Safety Risks◆◆ Advocating for Safe Work Practices◆◆ Industry Specific Safety Basics◆◆ Leading the Safety Campaign

SUCCESSFUL SAFETY COMMITTEE CERTIFICATEThe intention of a safety committee is to identify and remediate organizational safety concerns while promoting and implementing best safety practices. The challenge for any organization is to stay on task while maintaining positive safety focused attitudes. Demonstrating commitment from all involved can only be achieved through activity that engages and informs all employees within the workplace. It is this engagement that fosters the desired safety culture within the organization.

“ The Management Development Program* offered through Lehigh

Valley Association of Independent Colleges (LVAIC) helped me

ease into a new environment at Moravian College. The program

was very thorough in its basic management material. But what

I found the most useful was the detail to situational leadership.

In this four-month/four-course certificate program, I was able to not

only meet people in my career field, but was given the opportunity

to learn from them as well.”
