Introduction

Organisations seeking to improve efficiency, competitiveness, and operational clarity must first understand how their processes truly function. Business process analysis and modelling provide the foundation for identifying inefficiencies, redundancies, and gaps that prevent organisations from achieving consistent performance. Without accurate process models, improvement initiatives often rely on assumptions rather than evidence, leading to suboptimal outcomes.

The Business Process Analysis and Modelling training course delivers a practical, step-by-step approach to analysing and modelling business processes at both enterprise and workflow levels. It focuses on transforming implicit knowledge into clearly defined, reusable process models that reflect reality and stakeholder requirements. By applying Business Process Modelling Notation (BPMN), participants gain a shared language to document, analyse, test, and improve processes, supporting sustainable operational excellence and informed decision-making.

Key focus areas include:
