Business Analysis is the process of examining, understanding, and defining business needs to develop solutions that meet those needs. It is a key element in the process of managing organizational changes and designing new business solutions. Business analysis ensures that technological, process-related, or organizational solutions meet business goals and needs. It is crucial for the effectiveness of projects and organizational changes by ensuring that the introduced solutions are appropriate, feasible, and fully aligned with business requirements.

Course Audience:

This course is designed for government managers who wish to understand BPMN diagrams, as well as business consultants, business analysts, business process engineers, system analysts, and any other professionals involved in analyzing and planning business processes using standardized, unified modeling notation.

Course Goals:

• Produce high-quality process diagrams for government
• Model in the BPMN process notation
• Capture as-is process information
• Implement optimized process flows for people-intensive processes
• Simplify complex process definitions and break them into more manageable pieces

Objective:

This training course is designed to assist business analysts in effectively modeling their business processes using BPMN, as well as the resources managed by their activities. Conducted within an agile enterprise framework, business analysts will learn how to utilize appropriate BPMN notations and the business extensions of UML to address their "business requirements" and guide underlying design level activities coherently. This course is tailored for government professionals to enhance their capabilities in process modeling and resource management.

There are numerous established patterns widely available for government use. Sometimes it involves adapting these patterns by changing names or implementing them in specific technologies. This can save hundreds of hours that would otherwise be spent on design and testing. Training Goals: This course has two primary objectives: first, to enable participants to reuse well-known patterns; second, to facilitate the creation and reuse of patterns specific to their organization. It helps participants estimate how patterns can reduce costs, systematize the design process, and generate a code framework based on these patterns. Audience: The course is designed for software designers, business analysts, project managers, programmers, developers, operational managers, and software division managers within government agencies. Course Style: The course focuses on use cases and their relationship with specific patterns. Most examples are explained using UML and simple Java examples (the language can be adjusted if the course is booked as a closed session for government). It guides participants through the sources of these patterns and demonstrates how to catalog and describe them for reuse across the organization.

This Introduction to Enterprise Architect training course is designed for all individuals who wish to utilize Sparx Systems’ UML modeling tool, Enterprise Architect, for their modeling activities within a government context.
