Purdue University and the Institute for Process Excellence (IpX) announce a partnership to provide professional education certificate programs to industry clients in the areas of CM2, product lifecycle management (PLM) and model-based definition (MBD). Under this partnership, Purduestudents will be introduced to enterprise configuration management curriculum content in targeted undergraduate programs preparing students to help solve the most complex challenges facing global organizations. In order to achieve successful transformation in the landscape of tomorrow, businesses must invest in world-class resources in order to reshape legacy processes and systems.
The ability to evolve and tailor instruction for a variety of learners across the product lifecycle is a critical aspect of any educational program. Each job role has unique needs when authoring and consuming digital product data within day-to-day operations. Nathan Hartman, the Dauch Family Professor of Advanced Manufacturing and Director of the PLM Center, promotes such a model when building educational programs with industry, and the partnership with IpX directly supports that effort.
"The PLM Center at Purdue University is pleased to partner with IpX in the development of professional education programs for industry that combine PLM, MBD, and configuration management fundamentals," Hartman said. "IpX has rich domain expertise in complex industry sectors, and when paired with the experience and educational expertise of the Purdue PLM Center, it will provide an effective option for companies looking to provide high value educational options for their employees."
Speaking about the partnership, Joseph Anderson, Vice President of Services for IpX said, "The mission of IpX is to provide students and industry clients with a method to achieve their transformation strategy, improve their core business operating model, embrace the digital wave, maximize efficiency, and implement sustainable growth initiatives. The partnership with Purdue will provide a full suite of educational and solution services built upon a foundation of industry experience."
