Certified Efficiency Expert (CEE) Training
This course helps train consultants or internal employees to recognize inefficiencies in business processes and to either build new effective workflows or optimize existing ones. The training fosters the understanding required to identify waste, redundancy, defects, and rework, which cause poor customer service, lack of ESG compliance, cost overruns, and the inability to get things done at the speed of today’s business.
Course participants will develop the skill set to isolate these inefficiencies and identify and map dependencies from process to process cross-functional departments and team members to team members. They learn to build a Findings Report that clearly shows the current state and provides proactive keys to a future state via an executable action plan.
Additionally, through this training, students are shown how a “systems thinking” mindset will enable them to look at any function or operation they encounter and identify ways of making it more efficient and effective.
Learn how to perform a business process analysis, analyze the data, and compare it against best-industry practices. Become a Certified Efficiency Expert!

It behooves the consultant, sales professional, or internal employee to understand where each one fits concerning the company’s specific business and technical requirements.
I had the pleasure of taking the efficiency expert certification class from Byron Aulick this Fall. Byron is a thorough and great teacher. While taking the course, I was able to apply what I have learned to the real-world. I used the pay period and ROI calculations as decision drivers in my presentation to onboard a new software. I learned how to engage the audience upfront to get to “No” quickly. The return was over 100%, and the payback period was less than 3 months. I got to “Yes” unanimously during the first pitch.
