    Frequently Asked QuestionsHere's everything you may ask...

    Business Process Management (BPM) is a structured discipline for identifying, modelling, analysing, improving and monitoring the processes that deliver value in an organisation. This training builds those practical skills across the full BPM lifecycle in a single day, with no exam involved.

    General

    What is Business Process Management (BPM)?

    Business Process Management (BPM) is a structured discipline for identifying, modelling, analysing, improving and monitoring the processes that deliver value in an organisation. This training builds those practical skills across the full BPM lifecycle in a single day, with no exam involved.

    Is the BPM training worth it for my career?

    Yes. Process skills are in demand across South African banking, telecoms, retail, government and manufacturing, where roles from business analyst to operations manager rely on them. The training gives you modelling, analysis and improvement skills you can apply immediately. Talk to a learning advisor to see how it fits your goals.

    Who should attend this BPM course?

    The course suits business analysts, process owners, operations and service delivery managers, IT professionals, quality managers and change practitioners. Anyone responsible for designing, running or improving business processes in any sector will benefit.

    Do I need any prior experience to join?

    No. There are no formal prerequisites and the course introduces BPM from first principles. Some familiarity with how your organisation works is helpful but not required.

    What standards and frameworks does the training cover?

    The training is grounded in the recognised BPM body of knowledge: the ABPMP BPM Common Body of Knowledge (CBOK), BPMN 2.0 (the ISO/IEC 19510 process modelling standard) and the process approach of ISO 9001:2015. BPM is vendor-neutral, so no single body governs it.

    Pricing

    How much does BPM training cost in South Africa?

    Fees vary by delivery format (live virtual, classroom or corporate onsite) and group size, so pricing is available on request. Request a quote and a learning advisor will share current options for your chosen format.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes instructor-led training across all six BPM modules, structured courseware and learning resources, hands-on modelling and analysis exercises, learner support, and a course completion certificate.

    Do you offer discounts for group bookings?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for teams and departments. Contact us for a tailored group quote.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, with instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Is there a separate exam or certification fee?

    No. This is a non-certification skills course with no exam, so there is no exam or awarding-body fee to pay. Your fee covers the training itself and the course completion certificate.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam for this BPM course?

    No. This is a practical, non-certification course with no examination. Learning is reinforced through BPMN modelling exercises, process analysis workshops and group discussion throughout the day.

    Do I get a certificate after the training?

    Yes. You receive a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning once you complete the programme. It records your training, though it is not a formal certification, as BPM has no single awarding body.

    How is learning checked during the course?

    There is no formal assessment. Instead, you apply BPM techniques throughout the day in modelling exercises, analysis workshops and redesign activities, so you practise the skills as you learn them.

    Does BPM have a formal certifying body?

    No. BPM is a vendor-neutral discipline with no single governing or awarding body. The training references established standards such as BPMN 2.0 and the ABPMP CBOK rather than preparing you for a specific credential exam.

    How does BPM relate to Lean and Six Sigma?

    BPM provides the end-to-end framework for identifying, modelling, governing and improving processes. Lean and Six Sigma offer specific improvement tools applied within that framework. In short, BPM governs the process while Lean and Six Sigma help improve it.

    Course Content

    What will I learn in the BPM training?

    You will learn to model processes in BPMN 2.0, run the full BPM lifecycle, analyse processes to expose waste, redesign workflows, measure performance with KPIs, and govern and automate processes. The skills apply across any industry or function.

    How long is the course?

    The programme runs for one day (8 hours), covering all six BPM modules with concept explanations, BPMN modelling exercises, and process analysis and redesign workshops throughout.

    Will I practise BPMN 2.0 modelling?

    Yes. You will draw business processes in BPMN 2.0 from verbal descriptions, using events, gateways, tasks, sequence flows and swimlanes, and validate your models the way you would with real stakeholders.

    Does it cover process automation and RPA?

    Yes. The training explains how a BPMS, workflow tools and Robotic Process Automation (RPA) fit into BPM, and how to spot which tasks are suitable to automate once a process is well designed.

    What materials are provided?

    You receive structured courseware, modelling and analysis exercises, and reference materials covering the BPM lifecycle, BPMN 2.0 and process improvement, plus a course completion certificate on finishing.

    Enrollment

    How do I enrol in the BPM course?

    You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and you will receive access to schedules and learning resources. See upcoming batches or talk to a learning advisor to get started.

    What delivery formats are available?

    The course is available online (live virtual) instructor-led, in a classroom, and as corporate onsite training, so you can choose the format that fits your schedule and team.

    Can my whole team be trained together?

    Yes. Corporate onsite and live virtual group training let you train a cross-functional team together, and teams can model and analyse their own real processes during the session. Request a group quote to arrange it.

    Can I reschedule my booking?

    Yes. Flexible options let you reschedule or move to another batch where available. Contact our support team and they will help you arrange a suitable date.
