Lean Six Sigma Class visits FESTO Corp.

On Thursday, November 10th, students in the Lean Six Sigma class at the high school attended a field trip to FESTO Corp. in Mason.  The students were given an overview of the company and were able to tour the facility.   The tour included a look at the manufacturing facility, shipping and logistics area, offices, dining facility, and meeting rooms.  FESTO uses material from the Lean Six Sigma class on a daily basis and the students were able to see everything they have been learning used in a real world setting.  Following the tour, the students had a debriefing with a member of the human resources department and listened to a presentation that included information about pay, vacation time, benefits, and tuition reimbursement.  The class found the trip to be beneficial as they were able to see application of Lean Six Sigma in a business environment.
