The simple step-by-step approach helps you and your team achieve success, no matter how complex the system, process, approach or culture you need to affect or transform. This 3-day training ends with a short exam and certification.

Process Modeling with BPMN 2.0

Process Modeling is one of the most common ways to visualise and understand processes. Many triggers exist to model processes but the approach and visualisation are common. These two elements – approach and visualisation – are exactly what we will address in this course.

The first day we will explain and train a step-by-step approach for modeling processes. The second day we will address BPMN 2.0 and help you to translate the result of the first day into a BPMN 2.0 compliant process.

Writing your Business Case

Why do too many projects fail even though project management best practices appear to be used? Project management is sometimes complex, but it can be a real hassle if you don’t have sufficient buy-in from the beginning.
Writing a strong and complete business case is a fundamental step in developing a project or program, it outlines the needs leading to project initiation and is helpful to convince the key decision-makers of the company to invest in any project or program. A business case is essential to capture new ideas and opportunities, communicate it with confidence to the financial and non-financial stakeholders to validate these ideas in the marketplace.

This course addresses all elements of a Business Case and provides you with insights and tools to make it as correct and complete as necessary.
