The document outlines a course on business process modeling notation (BPMN). It discusses setting up a business process management practice, introducing BPMN, modeling processes using Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect software, and relating organizational models to process models using BPMN artifacts. The 3-day course covers BPMN concepts, case studies, hands-on exercises, and an assessment test to help participants prepare for the OCEB 2 OMG BPMN 2 certification.

5. BPMN INTRODUCTION
Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) is a graphical
notation to visualize and model processes.
Has been developed by BPMI (Business Process
Management Initiative) as a standard in process modeling.

BPMN 2.0 examples
Business process modeling is used to communicate a
wide variety of information to different audiences.
BPMN is designed to cover many types of modeling and
allows the creation of process segments as well as
end-to-end business processes, at different levels of
fidelity.

6. BPMN ARTIFACTS
The four basic categories of elements of BPMN are:
Swim lanes: to organize different activities into categories of the same functionality.
Pool: contains many Flow Objects, Connecting Objects and Artifact
Lane: it is a sub-part of the pool
There are three basic types of sub-models within a BPMN model:
Private or internal business processes: internal to the performing organization it is also referenced as workflow.
Abstract or public processes: represent the Message flows between a private business process and another process or
Collaboration or global processes between two business entities (different lanes)
