TRIZ Level 1 certification eLearning course
Certification training compliant with the requirements of the International TRIZ Association program. The course includes comprehensive material enabling participants to take the exam and obtain MATRIZ certification.
The course is dedicated to candidates for Level 1 MATRIZ Specialist and covers material that enables participants to begin effectively creating product innovations immediately after completion. Participants become familiar with analytical tools and gain the knowledge required to correctly formulate physical and technical contradictions, as well as to approach their resolution in a systematic manner using procedural algorithms.
The training is available in an asynchronous format, allowing users to study at a time and place convenient for them. In addition to lectures, it includes exercises and quizzes that test knowledge after each educational module.
Educational objectives
- To familiarize course participants with the fundamental principles of creating innovative solutions and with the basic tools of modern TRIZ;
- To acquire knowledge and skills in efficiently developing optimal innovative solutions (generating solution concepts);
- To develop effective communication using the language of functions.
Business objectives
- To increase the effectiveness of R&D teams’ work;
- To shorten the time required to solve innovative problems;
- To reduce costs associated with conducting work in innovative projects;
- To increase the number and quality of obtained patents.
In this course, you will learn how to
- Analyze a technical system, present information about the analyzed system in a structured manner, and identify its functional deficiencies;
- Identify and logically justify the underlying causes of defects in technical systems;
- Present a model of a technical problem in the form of functions and in the form of contradictions (technical and physical);
- Apply tools for solving technical problems;
- Effectively communicate implemented changes using clear and unambiguous functional language.
Who is the course intended for:
- Development managers and engineers;
- R&D department managers and engineers;
- 6 Sigma, Lean, QFD, and DFSS specialists;
- Strategic planning specialists;
- Engineers and technical staff;
- Researchers and students, primarily in technical fields;
- Patent attorneys;
- Startup team members;
- Employees of Technology Transfer Centers and Technology Parks;
- Public officials bridging the fields of science and business.
The course includes TRIZ tools:
- Product function analysis;
- Cause-effect chain analysis;
- Trimming;
- Technical and physical contradictions;
- Introduction to resources.
The course includes a discount resulting from the purchase of all five TRIZ Level 1 tools in a single package.

- Cause-effect chain analysis (CECA)Cause–effect chain analysis of defects, also known as CECA, is an independent analytical tool used to identify problems within a system.4
- TrimmingTrimming is an independent analytical tool of the TRIZ methodology used to improve a technical system by identifying and eliminating its weakest elements.7
- Technical and physical contradictionsTechnical contradiction and physical contradictions are independent and most commonly used tools of the TRIZ methodology for solving technological problems.1
- Resources in TRIZAs part of this module, the use of resources in TRIZ is presented. The concept of a resource, the classification of resources, and the resource search algorithm are defined.2

A certified TRIZ (Level 3) and DFP (Level 3) expert, she applies her knowledge and skills not only in R&D projects but also in creating educational materials and popular science articles. Co-author of four textbooks on TRIZ and DFP.
She serves as Scientific Secretary for both MATRIZ and the DFP Institute.
By training, she is a designer - a graduate of the Faculty of Fashion Design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź. From 1998 to 2020, she worked in the manufacturing industry as a designer and technologist. She is also an experienced trainer. For many years, she worked as a chief technologist and specialist in implementing CNC cutting lines and CAD systems for automatic fabric cutting. She also lectured on fabric cutting technologies in the furniture industry at the Faculty of Forestry and Wood Technology, Poznań University of Life Sciences.
