What you will learn
The BCS Practitioner Certificate in Modelling Business Processes gives you the practical skills to analyse, model, and improve business processes in real organisational contexts. Building on the core business analysis knowledge, this course equips you with techniques to investigate how work is performed, identify inefficiencies, and design improved processes that deliver measurable value. You will learn how to create process models that communicate effectively with stakeholders, support decision making, and align with business goals.
The Role of Process Modelling in Business Analysis
Understand why process modelling is central to business analysis and business improvement. You will learn how process models provide a structured view of how work is done, and how they support requirements definition, solution design, and organisational change.
Approaches to Investigating Processes
Gain practical skills in investigating existing processes using observation, interviews, workshops, and document analysis. You will learn how to capture information about the “as is” process and identify problem areas such as duplication, bottlenecks, and unnecessary steps.
Creating Business Process Models
Develop the ability to create accurate process models using standard notations. You will learn how to represent activities, decisions, handoffs, and workflows in a clear and structured way. This section ensures you can produce models that provide a shared understanding for stakeholders.
Levels of Process Modelling
Understand how to create different levels of process models, from high-level end-to-end diagrams to detailed activity models. You will learn when to use each level of detail, and how to move from broad overviews to specific analysis depending on project needs.
Analysing “As Is” Processes
Learn how to assess existing business processes for efficiency, effectiveness, and alignment to objectives. You will practise techniques for identifying waste, inefficiencies, and risks, and for highlighting opportunities for improvement. This section helps you provide evidence-based insights that drive meaningful change.
Designing “To Be” Processes
Gain confidence in designing improved processes that address weaknesses in current workflows. You will learn how to apply redesign techniques such as eliminating non-value-adding steps, automating tasks, and improving controls. This module shows you how to align redesigned processes with organisational strategy and customer needs.
Process Handoffs and Interfaces
Understand how to analyse the handoffs between roles, teams, or systems within a process. You will learn how to identify where delays or errors occur at interfaces, and how to recommend improvements that reduce risks and improve efficiency.
Validating and Communicating Process Models
Learn how to check that your process models are accurate, consistent, and aligned with business objectives. You will also gain skills in presenting process models to stakeholders, ensuring they are understood and used as a basis for decision making.
Process Measurement and Improvement
Discover how to measure the performance of processes using metrics such as cycle time, error rates, and throughput. You will learn how to use these measures to evaluate whether redesigned processes are delivering the expected improvements.
Scenario Based Application
Throughout the course, you will apply process modelling techniques to case studies and scenarios. This gives you the opportunity to practise investigating, modelling, and improving processes, and to justify your recommendations to stakeholders.
Career and Progression Prospects
Business Analysis skills are highly valued across diverse sectors, from finance to healthcare to technology. This certification has the power to open doors to rewarding new opportunities, helping you drive change and add real business value.
