Requirements
Effective communication is at the heart of every successful organization—and business process modeling is one of the most powerful tools to achieve it. This course introduces you to the fundamentals of process mapping and workflow design, with a special focus on how these techniques can be used to clearly and visually communicate how work gets done across teams and departments.
Designed for beginners, analysts, and professionals alike, you’ll start by learning what business process models are and why they’re valuable beyond process improvement—especially for team communication, cross-department collaboration, and management reporting. Next, you’ll explore a practical subset of Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN 2.0), learning how to interpret and use key symbols such as events, activities, gateways, and data objects.
You’ll then apply your new knowledge to a relatable example—planning a family vacation—to identify which notations to use and how to represent real-world decisions and actions. Finally, you’ll learn how to use a free and accessible online modeling tool to create your own clear and professional business process model from start to finish.
By the end of this course, you’ll be able to confidently design, document, and interpret business process models that clarify workflows, improve communication, and strengthen overall business analysis and process improvement efforts.
