Iron City - America's Most Livable City

Excellent choice! Pittsburgh Lean Lego Game occurs in western Pennsylvania at the point where the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers combine to form the Ohio River. Its Gilded Age sites including Carnegie Museums of Natural History and Art, plus Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens speak to its history as an industrial center. Make time to visit Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, and Point State Park. Also popular is the city view from Mount Washington especially while riding the Duquesne Incline.

I think MBBC instructor's 5S training was very good and effective by technique and his on-site advise. In Japan, most of purpose for 5S training is "Realization of a safe working environment". In his training, I learned as "Maximize corporate profit" and at the same time it was very impressive that how clear and effect of doing 5S is very closely linked to lean manufacturing. I felt that is effective especially for western who have different mentalities from Japanese.

The IATF16949-2016 training was very insightful and helped me understand some manufacturing terminology that I did not know before this class. MBBC's instructor was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the information which made the class enjoyable. I will most definitely use the skill and information I've learned from this class.
