The Professional Certificate in Business Process Management program from BPTrends Associates will be running in Sydney this November and December 2008. This program is delivered around the world to give a complete framework for the discovery, improvement and management of business processes. It has been developed by two global thought leaders in BPM, Paul Harmon and Roger Burlton.
Also running in December are Leonardo Consultings' Improving Processes and Measuring Processes. These courses can also be taken at any time without having to complete the BPTrends program.

From 1-4 December, Architecting and Managing a Process-Centric Organisation will be run for the first time as a public course in Sydney. Beyond process improvement, this course teaches how to build and maintain a truly process-centric organisation. It addresses the Enterprise Level of the BPTrends Pyramid where it is the organisation-in-focus. The course covers the critical issues of strategic context, process architecture, performance measurement, BPM governance, process architectural alignment and operational management.
Over the four days of the course, the structure of the process-centric organisation emerges as we move across this methodology first at the Organisation Level and then at successively lower levels: Value Chains, Level 1 Processes and Level 2 Processes. Layer by layer we build the understanding and infrastructure required for process based management across the enterprise. Then we bring it all together in a practical discussion of the creation and operation of a BPM Centre of Excellence.
The course is designed for organisations seeking to move beyond ad hoc process improvement to enterprise-wide process management. It is a must for anyone serious about developing a process-based management culture.

* The BPTA 101 course is a prerequisite for this course.

“How can we effect process management in our organisations?” “What do we need to do to get everybody thinking process, and thinking about it in a uniform way?” “What’s the formula for BPM success?” “What are the 10 steps to BPM nirvana?”
These are common questions. They are good questions as well. Unfortunately the answers will usually start “Well, it all depends ….”.

We acknowledge the late Michael Hammer’s great contribution to contemporary process thinking.
“Michael Hammer, the co-author of a best-selling book, “Reengineering the Corporation,” which some business experts say significantly influenced the way many corporations have reorganised their workplaces by focusing on the expertise of their employees, died Wednesday [3 September] in Boston. He was 60 and lived in Newton, Mass.”
