Do you need to educate people on key concepts like Master Production Scheduling and want self-administered programs that you can run at your own pace and on your own schedule? 

The new Partners for Excellence Master Production Scheduling Instructor’s Manual was specifically designed to support timely, focused, self-administered education. This comprehensive Instructor’s Manual contains:

  • Detailed course material and paper copies of the visuals used in conducting a class. 

  • Instructor notes for each visual – what are the key points that need to be made?

  • Brainstorming questions to facilitate two-way discussion and learning. 

These materials can be used as a turnkey, stand-alone product, or the material and examples can be customized and tailored to fit your processes and environment. The MPS Instructor’s Manual can be used to conduct 8-24 hours of education.
