Summary

An introduction to the concept and most used tools.

TRIZ is a proven capability for defining and solving engineering, IT and management problems, generating new ideas and evolving technical systems more quickly, cheaply and inventively. It is ideal when you have been optimising for years but still need to make improvements.

This one-day face-to-face course has been built around the main TRIZ tools and a programme of supporting research that distils the findings from over 4 million case study analyses. The huge TRIZ toolkit helps engineers to define problems better by bringing clarity to complex situations, and then enables the generation of solutions to such problems in a reliable and repeatable manner.

You will learn how to apply these tools to systematically generate innovative solutions.

TRIZ will generate new ideas and evolve technical systems more quickly, cheaply and inventively. Its principal tools enable engineers to uncover the most effective routes to practical solutions, as well as the development of the next generation of products.

The course involves several hands-on exercises and gives participants the experience to apply them back in their workplace.

Who should attend?

Engineers at all levels.
