  Skill Builder Online Workshop 

  Business Process Modeling
  Analytical Modeling

  3 Hour Hands On Workshop

  
  

  September 26, 2020
  

  10:00 AM to 1:00 PM

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  Overview

  
  

  Business modeling practices are often unclear definitions, resulting in miscommunication amongst stakeholders, and contributing to project failures, due to the inability to describe and understand an organization’s business processes end-to-end and top-to-bottom.

  
  

  Let us help you build your skills!  The Toronto IIBA Chapter is hosting a 3-hour workshop, during which participants will learn:

  • A best practices approach to developing a Business Process Model
  • Practical exercises in Business Process Modeling based on real-world examples
  • The use of the Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) for an IT-oriented view of a given process

  Every participant will leave the session with greater comfort and confidence to model business processes using effective diagramming techniques, be less intimidated by this work, and clearly show how Business Process Modeling leads to better business outcomes.

  
  

  
  

  Outline

  • Best Practices for Process Modeling
  • BPMN Level 2 (Analytical Modeling)
  • Process Narrative (the unknown technique – bonus!)

  
  

  Recommended Pre-Requisite

  • Skill Builder (Online Workshop) - Business Process Modeling (Descriptive Modeling)
  • Or a working understanding of flowcharting.

  
  

  Audience

  • Consultants advising clients in planning and decision-making
  • Team members actively involved in software or business data who consistently find business processes a part of their development and deliverables.
  • Team leaders and management who are seeking to bring consistency, discipline, and accountability into their decision-making processes.
  • Business analysts, project analysts, product analysts, data analysts, and other analysis roles who recognize the opportunities and necessity of including business process modeling skills as part of their skills competencies in our current fast-moving marketplace.

  Roger Burlton and UBC Present

  for Organizational Change

  September 28 to October 23

  Facilitator - Roger Burlton

  Location - Online 

  Offered by University of British Columbia (UBC) Continuing Education

  Time Zone - Pacific Standard Time (PST)

  
  

  
  

  Overview

  • The ultimate benefit of a good Business Architecture will be in changing the organization to be able to continue to change as pressures mount to remain relevant; to achieve Business Agility.

  • This requires designing the right business solutions that provide the greatest return on investment to the business, avoiding duplication of function and effort and developing capabilities once for multiple uses across the processes of the organization.

  • Without a solid Business Architecture there will certainly be sub-optimization, redundancy and inconsistency across business operations with increasing difficulty to change fast later on.

  • With a good Business Architecture all aspects of your business will be changeable, including processes, technology, roles, the organizational structure itself and the culture.

  
  

  Course Format

  • During COVID 19 the format of this course is online and virtual for the Fall 2020 courses. 
  • Prior to 4pm PST on the start date of the course, an email will be sent to all registered students containing instructions on how to access the online Learning Management System.
