The REFA Methodology includes the traditional core knowledge of REFA which is continuously updated since 1924.

 

The core methods focus on optimizing work processes as well as on the determination and evaluation of operational data. With the methods and tools provided by the REFA Methodology one can evaluate work processes in a systematic and holistic approach; thus, the entire value added chain of an organization can be analyzed and optimized.

 

Noteworthy of the REFA Methodology is its neutrality in tariff politics. Before a method is up-dated and published, the content is checked by the Confederation of German Employers' Associations (BDA) and the German Confederation of Trade Unions (DGB).

Trainers/Teachers need to complete a special train-the-trainer program before they can hold a seminar.
