The Textile Rental Services Association (TRSA) continues to raise the bar on industry professional development opportunities with the introduction of a new Production Management Certificate.

Created to encourage managers and supervisors to build the skills and competencies necessary for success in their linen, uniform and facility services careers, the Production Management Certificate was developed following a TRSA-commissioned study and job analysis of the Production Management roles, responsibilities, tasks, skills and knowledge required of the position that was completed in 2018.

In addition to receiving a certificate of completion after successfully finishing the modules and testing, individuals can also earn six hours of CPE towards the TRSA Certified Professional Laundry Manager (CPLM) designation.

The Production Management Certificate curriculum is being offered to TRSA members for USD $295.

“This new certificate course offers production supervisors and managers an opportunity to improve their knowledge and demonstrate their accomplishment to their peers and management,” said TRSA president & CEO Joseph Ricci. “Similar certificate programs have been introduced in other service and manufacturing sectors, and provided increased skill and knowledge development while increasing employee growth and retention.”
