Trial courses
Are you interested in MTM or EAWS training and would like to have a first look? Then book our "trial course" and immerse yourself in the MTM world of learning!
In the "trial course" you have the opportunity to get to know the different teaching elements (e.g. digital training documents, learning modules, software, etc.) of MTM.
Workshops
In addition to the standardized training program (see Qualification procedure (APO)), the MTM ASSOCIATION e. V. offers customer-specific workshops, primarily as in-house training. Content and duration of the workshops can be individually agreed with the customer. If your desired topic for a workshop is not listed here, please contact us.
Selected workshops will also be offered in the public area of the MTM Academy in the future. We will start with the "Introduction to MTM" offer, which is aimed at managers, works councils and decision-makers. This workshop provides a basic understanding of the MTM process language in order to be able to make the right decisions (e.g. on training, software application, introduction concept, works agreement, etc.) for a successful introduction and sustainable application.
Supplement: The training manuals from the standardized training program will not be distributed during the workshops.
Introduction to MTM
For the introduction and operational application of MTM, managers, works councils and decision makers need a basic understanding. In the workshop, the benefits of MTM will be made tangible by means of practical examples and reflected with regard to the own operational application.
MTM-Practitioner
Become a productivity designer in your company - certified and recognized worldwide - with the "Blue Card". The MTM-Practitioner is the company's expert on the use of MTM. He masters the rule-compliant description and evaluation of manual work processes in at least one MTM process building block system, the recognition and quantification of design potential as well as the planning and implementation of improvement projects. The MTM-Practitioner is the guarantor for the rule-compliant application of MTM. He is the contact for works councils, employees and executives for the design of the MTM application in the company.

The MTM-Logistics Standard Operations are designed for the modeling of logistics processes. They are based on the MTM-UAS process building block system and can be learned in two ways.
MTM-MEK
MTM-MEK (MTM in One-of-a-Kind and Small Batch Production) is designed for modeling processes in One-of-a-Kind and Small Batch Production. The application is particularly recommended for non-cyclically recurring processes (e.g. maintenance, servicing and repair).
MTM-Practitioner
The MTM-Practitioner training is characterized by the application of the acquired expertise in the MTM process building block systems. Under the guidance of an experienced instructor, the participants work through an operational case study - from the ACTUAL to the TARGET - from the design idea to the economic proof.
MTM-Practitioner Refresher
The MTM-Practitioner Refresher course ensures that the MTM-Practitioner proves and renews his skills and knowledge in the rule-compliant application of an MTM process building block system every three years. With successful participation, the "Blue Card" is extended with all completed process building block systems.
Refreshing one’s Application Competence in one of the MTM Process Building Block Systems
The refresher training in one of the MTM process building block systems ensures that the participants renews his skills in and knowledge of the MTM application in one of the respective MTM process building block system (e.g. MTM-UAS). The perfect course for MTM users who are not in ownership of a "Blue Card".
EAWS-Practitioner
The qualification to become an EAWS-Practitioner is aimed at clerks, specialists and managers from the fields of industrial engineering, planning, time management, work preparation, production, logistics, occupational safety and from product and equipment design as well as company doctors, safety specialists, representatives of the works council and various other other interest groups that are to carry out ergonomic analyzes or ergonomic assessments in their area of responsibility. It is also aimed at ergonomics officers and employees who create or assess ergonomic risk analyzes in the company as well as employees whose area of responsibility includes the design, optimization and/or restructuring of workplaces in the industrial environment.
EAWS
EAWS (Ergonomic Assessment Worksheet) is designed to assess physical stress in volume and series production. It provides a risk score for the load categories posture, action forces, manual load handling, extra points, and repetitive loads on the upper extremities.
