AI Academy / Foundational

Run the line with the AI beside you.

The shop-floor path. Learn to read your live line, log losses cleanly, and act on the next-best fix - so every shift you work makes the plant’s numbers more trustworthy and its losses smaller.

01

Built for the Operator.

Machine operators, line workers, and floor crew who use KaizenFlow AI every shift. No analytics background needed - every screen is taught from the floor’s point of view.

Prerequisite

None. This is the entry point to every other Academy path.

02

What you'll learn.

By the end of this path, you'll be able to:

  • Read the live line view - OEE, downtime, and scrap by station - without hunting through tabs
  • Log downtime, changeovers, and scrap so the numbers your plant trusts stay accurate
  • Act on the AI’s ranked next-best action and mark it done from the floor
  • Respond to anomaly alerts before a small drift compounds into scrap
  • Hand off a shift the next crew and your supervisor can act on

How it's assessed

A short hands-on check driven by a simulated shift on the live line view - read the line, log a downtime stop and a changeover with the right reasons, action the AI’s ranked next-best fix and close the loop, respond to an anomaly alert, then leave a usable handover. Scored on whether your floor actions are correct, not on what you can recite.

2 attempts included; immediate retake, no cooldown.

What's tested

  • Reading the live line view - locating OEE, downtime, and scrap by station and seeing which station is losing
  • Clean data entry - logging a downtime stop and a changeover with the right reason codes
  • Acting on the AI’s ranked next-best action and responding to an anomaly alert before drift becomes scrap
  • Leaving a clear, actionable shift handover

Every credential carries a unique ID and a shareable badge - verifiable by anyone, no login, valid for 24 months.

04

Do I need computer or analytics experience?

No. The Operator path assumes only that you run a line. Every screen is taught from the floor’s point of view, step by step.

How long does it take?

About 95 minutes of guided modules, fully self-paced - you can stop and resume between shifts.
