The Jacksonville Lean Consortium and St. Johns River State College Partnership

The Jacksonville Lean Consortium is excited to announce a new partnership with our member organization, St. Johns River State College (SJRSC), a collaboration designed to foster professional growth and Lean thinking across the First Coast!

This partnership, entered into on March 14, 2025, brings a wealth of opportunities for both organizations. SJRSC faculty and students will gain access to high-quality Lean training, resources, and certifications at a discounted rate, enhancing their educational and professional development.

Additionally, Lean Jax and its member organizations will benefit from the use of SJRSC facilities, providing an ideal space to connect with the broader community and host impactful events.

A key component of this collaboration is the train-the-trainer program, which will equip SJRSC faculty with the expertise to deliver Lean Jax’s Lean Practitioner Certification Training internally. This initiative not only empowers educators but also strengthens the foundation for continuous improvement and Lean excellence within the institution.

Among other highlights are initiatives like a Lean Student Certificate Course pilot, making Lean education accessible to students at an affordable price, as well as shared marketing efforts and networking opportunities to expand Lean Jax’s reach and influence throughout the region.

Stay tuned for updates on upcoming events and training opportunities as Lean Jax and SJRSC work together to drive positive change across the First Coast!
