Lean Six Sigma #1294Program Credential: CertificateA key success factor for organizations considering a continuous improvement or sustainability program is to start by having their employees trained and equipped in the disciplines of lean and six sigma.

Through the Lean Six Sigma program, participants will develop knowledge and skill through both in-class and applied projects in their own organizations. This program will provide a roadmap for graduates to continuously improve and enhance their organizations’ competitiveness in today’s global economy through the identification and elimination of wasteful practices, resulting in greater financial and environmental sustainability. Further, program graduates will be able to clearly map out their organization’s value stream in order to improve those processes which provide value to customers. Effective leadership and team building, essential to any successful lean six sigma implementation, will also be explored. This program is facilitated by faculty with many years of direct experience in business and industry. Upon successful completion of the program, graduates will receive a college certificate and a Six Sigma Yellow Belt certificate which has been endorsed by High Performance Solutions Inc. of Kitchener, Ontario.

Education Builds Opportunity After sustaining a workplace accident in 2009, Mark Klein-Geltink was forced to take his career in a new direction. That’s when he turned to Conestoga’s Continuing Education. Mark had previously obtained a Bachelor of Arts in Business, and knew that furthering his education would open new doors by allowing him to specialize.

Mark is now a graduate of Conestoga’s part-time Human Resources Management program and is currently studying in the Occupational Health and Safety program.

“I knew that these certificates, accompanied by my past work experience in construction and manufacturing, would make me an excellent addition to many workplaces,” Mark said.

Conestoga College wishes to thank Mark for sharing his experience.

1 Describe your pathway to Conestoga.While working for a construction company, I sustained a workplace accident that forced me to change my career path. Through various job searches, I saw the opportunities that could result from obtaining certification in Human Resources. I also knew an instructor in the Occupational Health & Safety program who encouraged me to try Human Resources. I particularly enjoyed the Occupational Health & Safety Legislation course within the program, and realized that I wanted to focus on health and safety. That’s why I decided to continue my studies after I completed the HR Management program.

2What would you describe as some of the strengths you found in the programs? The flexibility of taking the courses during the evenings and in different semesters made completing the program manageable even with my work, family and volunteer obligations.The instructors are the heart of the program. Every course I’ve completed in the Occupational Health & Safety program had an instructor with extensive real-life experience in the field. The “hands-on” learning is a strength as well: being able to go to workplaces to see their procedures and practices, and using the same equipment in the classroom that would be used in the field makes a real difference.

3What positive outcomes have come from continuing your education?The Human Resources Management program helped me land a job in a new field, and completing the OHS certificate will allow me to earn a significant raise. Continuing my education through Conestoga gave me the skills, knowledge and confidence I needed to better assist my clients and move from a Junior Consultant position to a Health & Safety Consultant role. Both programs provided me with crucial networking opportunities. I have met many students and instructors who I continue to associate with both personally and professionally.

4How were you able to fit the course work into your day-to-day life?Life is busy for everyone, but taking one evening course per semester made the work manageable.I try to give 100 per cent in everything I do. Taking courses while being a father, husband and employee has proven to be challenging but very rewarding at the same time. Some nights I’ve stayed up late studying, and some weekends I’ve chosen to stay in to finish an assignment rather than go out. Overall however, I haven’t needed to make too many sacrifices to manage my course requirements while working full-time and spending quality time with my family. Time management and organization have been essential, but with a little hard work anything is possible.

5If you could share advice with others considering this course, what would it be?Do it! You’ll see how relevant it is. You can immediately apply it to your current place of work, or see how it fits with past employment. Soak up the wealth of knowledge from the instructors and use the opportunity to tap into their experience.

6Do you plan on furthering your development by enrolling in other part-time courses with Conestoga?After completing my OHS certificate, I’ll be taking a little break. But there’s always more to learn, and I can see myself enrolling in more Occupational Health & Safety related courses in the near future.

We recently had the opportunity to speak with Mark on his journey with Conestoga and how it has helped build opportunity in a new career.

Exemption Testing & PLAR

Exemption Testing Apprentices & Non-ApprenticesBackground - The Apprenticeship Branch of the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities (MTCU) has authorized community colleges to administer trade exemption testing for apprentices and non-apprentices. Apprentices may challenge within their community colleges the in-school portion of apprenticeship levels of the trade-specific apprenticeship program depending on their level of expertise and time spent on the job. Non-apprentices can likewise challenge the in-school portion of the program starting at level one.

The exemption tests are based on the formal instruction requirements for an apprenticeship program. To be eligible to write an exemption test, the apprentices or non-apprentices must possess the entry requirements for the trade. Minimum age for writing the test is 16. Trade-specific standards and entry requirements can be obtained from the local Apprenticeship Branch of the Ministry of Training Colleges and University (MTCU) Training Office at 519-653-5758 or at: www.tcu.gov.on.ca/eng/employmentontario/training/certification.html

Who to Contact and How to Register - The exemption tests are written in sequential order. For more information on the process of exemption testing for apprentices and non-Apprentices, including obtaining the test breakdown and confirming eligibility, please contact Daniela Stoicoiu at: [email protected] or 519-748-5220, ext. 2260

Availability - Apprenticeship (APPR) Exemption tests are scheduled twice a month at the Doon (Kitchener) Campus, Main Building, Lab 2A212, from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm as follows:

2015 - March 10 and 24 August 11 April 7 and 21 September 15 and 29 May 5 and 19 October 13 and 27 June 9 and 23 November 10 and 24 July 14 and 28 December 8

Test candidates must bring photo identification on the day of testing. Candidates must register a minimum of 7 days prior to the preferred test day.

Earn credits for what you already know! Now you can earn Conestoga credits through the Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) process. Conestoga recognizes prior learning of skills, knowledge or competencies that have been acquired through employment, formal and informal education, non-formal learning or other life experiences. Prior learning must be measureable at the required academic level and meet Conestoga standards of achievement for current courses. Challenge exams and portfolio development are the main methods of assessment. Other methods of assessment may be available depending upon the nature of the course objectives. Successful completion of the assessment results in a course credit recorded on an official Conestoga transcript. PLAR cannot be used by registered Conestoga students for the clearance of academic deficiencies or to improve grades or to obtain admission into a program.

Who to Contact and How to Register - For more information on the PLAR process please contact Daniela Stoicoiu at: [email protected] or 519-748-5220, ext. 2260 or visit www.conestogac.on.ca/testing/plar.jsp
