Description

This course is carefully designed to take you from the basics of business process modeling through to advanced techniques and help you become an expert in the use of the BPMN 2.0 specification.Starting with an introduction to the meaning and application of business process modeling, you will be quickly introduced to the world of BPMN. We cover all the basic symbols, elements and diagram types you need to model your first processes. You will learn how to effectively use start and end events, tasks, gateways and sub-processes to create clear and understandable process diagrams.Once the basics are mastered, the course introduces you to advanced modeling techniques. You will explore complex workflows, multiple instances, event-driven processes and the use of artifacts to enrich your diagrams with additional information and increase their comprehensibility.Sounds worse than it is… I will explain everything in detail and in an understandable way.The section on events will show you how to effectively use different types of events such as timers, messages and errors to model realistic and dynamic business processes. In the Gateways section, you will learn how to properly represent decision points in your processes and control different path options based on business rules.In addition to technical skills, the course emphasizes best practices and developing a deep understanding of how BPMN 2.0 can be applied in real-world business scenarios. You will learn how to design efficient, flexible and scalable business processes that meet the needs of your organization.This course is perfect for beginners who have no prior knowledge of BPMN as well as advanced learners who want to deepen their knowledge.
