This highly interactive one-day course provides an overview of the principles of Lean Manufacturing. Participants learn how lean manufacturing tools and programs apply in today’s food processing environment. The course combines lecture and a live simulation that gives participants an immediate opportunity to apply the principles learned in the class. Four rounds of a food processing factory simulation provide the setting for applying the continuous improvement techniques and tools of Lean. Lean principles incorporated over the course of the simulation allow participants to transform a chaotic, inefficient process to a highly productive and efficient production process, where waste has been systematically eliminated. Goals/Objectives:
At the completion of the course, the student should be able to:
1. Demonstrate and apply the principles of Lean Manufacturing including distinguishing between value-added / non-value added activities and eliminating some of the “8 Wastes”
2. Explain and define how Lean Manufacturing can impact the success of a food processing plant
3. Identify and apply various Lean implementation tools and explain how/why they are used

Food Defense
2021-12-15 08:30 - 2021-12-16 12:30 UTC
Food Defense is the effort to protect food from acts of intentional adulteration. The FDA issued the final rule in May 2016 on mitigation strategies to protect food against “Intentional Adulteration”, which requires applicable facilities to formulate and implement food defense plans. The purpose of the food defense plan is to prevent food products being adulterated from any source inside or outside the company. Such acts intended to cause wide-spread harm to public health, including but not limited to acts of terrorism intending to target food supply, could cause illness, death and economic turmoil to the food supply. Implementing an effective food defense plan will allow for the prevention, protection against, mitigation, response time and recovery from any intentional adulteration of our food supply. Furthermore, food defense is already a requirement for all GFSI accredited Food Safety Management Systems (SQF, BRC etc.).

NJMEP R&D Tax Credit Overview
2021-12-14 14:00 - 15:00 (America/New_York)
Webinar for NJMEP clients to learn about R&D Tax credits – There are countless challenges, and one big issue is having a lack of cash on hand. We were discussing strategies to help New Jersey manufacturers secure more capital in a time where nearly everyone is struggling to keep their doors open and saw R&D Tax Credits as a valuable option.
Manufacturers are surprised to find out how many of their day-to-day activities can be considered R&D.
Sign up for our webinar and find out what kind of capital you might expect to secure or learn how simple securing your Tax Credits can be with the right team behind you.

Principles of Lean Manufacturing with Live Simulation
2021-12-14 08:30 - 17:00 (America/New_York)
Implementing lean principles are extremely beneficial for manufacturing companies. The elimination of waste (muda), continuous improvement (kaizen) as well as pull-systems (kanban) will be illustrated in live demonstrations for practical, comprehensible knowledge of Lean Manufacturing.
Lean Manufacturing training is based on principals that can be implemented and will become the strong foundation of your organization and employees.

Food Allergens
2021-12-13 08:30 - 2021-12-14 12:30 UTC
Food allergens are one of the most common reasons for food recalls. Allergen control is an essential part of every food safety program and required by the new FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) rule for “Preventive controls for human food”. The training class will explain the major allergens and how to set up an effective allergen program to avoid cross contact and ensure food safety. Participants will create a framework of the allergen program which can be later customized to their business. A certificate for successfully completion will be issued after passing the written knowledge test at the end of the training class.
