Hi Jyoti,
Shop Floor Management is a lucrative but challenging job option. A plus point about this field is the attraction of business establishments towards the untapped markets of Asia. As a lot of raw material and human resources are available in these areas at a cheaper rate.
Businesses are keen in putting up their business centers here. These business centers are further greater cause of establishment of Shop Floors. Hence, Shop Floor Management course can be an added advantage to professionals, as the business establishments would like to hire the trained professional rather than training them later on.
