Greetings from a very busy Oxford TRIZ team – like everyone else we are all working harder than ever. I commented on this to my husband who infuriatingly said “work smart - not hard”. I pointed out to him that TRIZ guarantees smart working and consequently by doing both, our team and the companies we work with are covering a huge amount. We aim to make Oxford TRIZ succinct, useful and enjoyable and help our many hardworking clients to be as efficient and effective as possible. To that end, we are really looking forward to delivering Oxford TRIZ Live Fundamental Problem Solving on 24-28 May - it's not too late to book your place here - we hope to see you there!
Much of our current problem solving involves Oxford TRIZ for patents and Intellectual Property. (If you missed my somewhat high speed live webinar on the subject do watch a recording which you can access here.) It precedes our next Oxford TRIZ Live Patent and IP Development online training June 14-18 which still has a few places available. More information below, as well as a Military Aircraft case study and (everyone's favourite 😊 ) cartoon of the month, please read on.

The Two Ways to Learn Oxford TRIZ Online and Why you Might Need Both
The two ways to learn Oxford TRIZ online each offer great but different benefits. In this article I explain the similarities and differences between the two, with the proviso that together they create a perfect blended learning package.
Both courses cover the essential TRIZ tools for innovative, clear thinking to resolve difficult challenges. Each course is very different but, in complimentary ways.
