The Business Architecture and Process Management training course teaches the basics of Business Architecture as a business management and project practice. It instructs how to apply business consulting and transformational business process engineering practices focusing on how to generate business value and capability through the adoption of standards and modeling methodologies.

Many companies are struggling with transformational change initiatives across multiple channels and products. In understanding how to architect results and translate these into project/program definitions and scope they will be able to positively impact the planning and business objectives of their organizations.

Delegates should have a good understanding of process design and re-engineering. A general knowledge of process analysis techniques would be useful but not mandatory.
