Business Process Management & Re-engineering Training Course in Egypt

 

 

Course Overview

You will be able to apply this new skill to describe and communicate processes and use mapping as a technique for process improvement.

If you are involved in writing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) or protocols, managing their implementation, planning or conducting process audits, generating or utilizing process performance metrics, solving problems and continual process improvement, this is the course for you.

The course is designed for all those with responsibility for managing, documenting, implementing or auditing, projects, processes and SOPs. It assumes no prior experience or skills in process mapping.

The course does not recommend any specific software or approach, but explores the principles and ideas that can be applied in any organization.

Benefits Include:

• Hands-on experience in exploring and mapping processes.

• An understanding of how process maps can be used to define, communicate and manage complex processes.

• Ideas to use process maps in SOPs, or even replace them.

• An insight into how process mapping can help with continual quality improvement.

• Ideas to enable the definition and measurement of meaningful performance metrics.

This course is structured to encourage delegates to:

• discuss and develop ideas

• solve specific problems

• examine particular aspects of process-based management and process mapping
