1. Fundamentals of BPM
2. Strategies for implementing BPM
3. Process modeling, analysis, and design
4. Governance and business strategy alignment
5. Process modeling using BPMN
6. Business rules management

Target Audience:

Managers responsible for decision-making regarding BPM, Business Consultants, Business Analysts, Business Process Engineers, System Analysts, and all professionals engaged in the analysis and planning of Business Processes.

This course is designed for professionals responsible for creating process models using BPMN 2.0.

It emphasizes the practical application of the entire BPMN 2.0 specification, along with the implementation of common modeling patterns.

The program consists of concise lectures followed by hands-on exercises. Participants will receive problem descriptions in English and must develop appropriate diagrams for each scenario. These diagrams will then be reviewed, discussed, and evaluated by both peers and the instructor.

While the primary focus is on understanding BPMN diagrams, the course also introduces foundational concepts related to the execution aspects of BPMN.

This course is designed for business analysts who wish to apply BPMN 2.0 extensively within their projects.

The curriculum emphasizes the practical application of the entire BPMN 2.0 specification, including the implementation of common patterns.

The format consists of concise lectures followed by hands-on exercises. Participants will receive problem descriptions in English and must construct appropriate diagrams for each scenario. Subsequently, these diagrams will be reviewed and evaluated by both the group and the trainer.

Please note that this course does not address the execution aspect of BPMN; rather, it concentrates on the analysis and process design dimensions of BPMN 2.0.

Target Audience:

Delegates with an interest in Process Modelling will find value in attending this business process modeling notation training course. It is particularly suited for:

• Business and Process Analysts
• Process Designers and Implementers
• Project and Programme Managers
• Professionals involved in business change and transformation.

The primary objective of this course is to equip learners with practical knowledge and refine BPMN modeling capabilities at both Intermediate and Advanced levels.

This course is ideally suited for business analysts—professionals engaged in discovering, identifying, gathering, and analyzing user requirements for systems—as well as advanced computer application developers and system architects who wish to expand their expertise in designing business processes, systems, and custom drivers.

Please note that the course does not cover the Executable BPMN level.

Training is delivered primarily through hands-on computer-based techniques (approximately 90% of the session). Participants will practice translating real-world business scenarios into Business Process Diagrams (BPD) while simultaneously learning to interpret diagrams and evaluate their practical utility.

This is an intensely practical course. Theoretical aspects of BPMN are not addressed during the training.

Designed for professionals aiming to leverage BPMN 2.0 extensively in their projects, this course emphasizes the practical application of the entire BPMN 2.0 specification, alongside the implementation of common process patterns.

Please note that this course does not address the execution phase of BPMN. Instead, it concentrates on the analysis and process design dimensions of BPMN 2.0.

Course Format

• Interactive lectures accompanied by discussions.
• Extensive exercises and practical sessions using Camunda Modeler.
• Hands-on implementation within a live laboratory environment.

Audience

This course equips participants with the skills to implement business processes using BPMN. It addresses both the graphical notation and the commonly utilized attributes of BPMN 2 components.

Technology

This course is independent of any specific platform, focusing exclusively on elements and attributes defined by the OMG specification. While jBPM is used by default, participants may employ any other tool that supports BPMN 2.0.

Class format

Participants will work through example use cases followed by practical exercises, enabling them to actively execute their processes.

Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN), Decision Model and Notation (DMN), and Case Management Model and Notation (CMMN) are three Object Management Group (OMG) standards dedicated to processes, decisions, and case modeling. This course introduces all three and clarifies when each should be applied.

This instructor-led, live training in Serbia (online or onsite) targets project managers at all levels who wish to obtain Green Belt certification knowledge in BPMN. The goal is to streamline project workflows, enhance process efficiency, and ensure compliance with business standards.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the core concepts and components of BPMN 2.0.
• Create and interpret BPMN diagrams to represent business processes.
• Optimize workflows using best practices in BPMN modeling.
• Identify and eliminate inefficiencies in business processes.
• Integrate BPMN into project management and process improvement initiatives.

Objective:

This training program is designed to equip business analysts with the skills to efficiently model their business processes and the resources managed by those activities. Delivered within the framework of an agile enterprise, the course teaches participants how to apply appropriate BPMN notations and UML business extensions to address "business requirements" and systematically guide subsequent design-level activities.

ProcessMaker is an open-source Business Process Management (BPM) software application. It is a lightweight, fully web-based tool built in PHP that offers capabilities comparable to costly enterprise solutions.

This course demonstrates how to implement process management using ProcessMaker, with a focus on creating process definitions, defining roles, groups, and users, and initiating processes from external applications.

Process mining, also known as Automated Business Process Discovery (ABPD), utilizes algorithms on event logs to analyze business processes. This approach extends beyond mere data storage and analysis; it connects data with processes, offering insights into trends and patterns that influence efficiency.

Course Format

• The course begins by reviewing the most widely used process mining techniques. We explore various discovery algorithms and tools for modeling processes from raw event data. The curriculum includes an examination of real-life case studies, where datasets are analyzed using the ProM open-source framework.
