Introduction to Process Mining with ProM (FutureLearn)

Introduction to Process Mining with ProM (FutureLearn)

Learn how to use the free, open source process mining framework (ProM) to analyse, visualise, and improve processes based on data. Process mining combines business process management with data science. Using process mining, you can analyse and visualise business processes based on event data recorded in event logs. For example, you could analyse how people use public transportation; verify whether a loan application is processed correctly by a bank; or predict when hardware parts are likely to fail. This online course will give you an introduction to this new and exciting field.

Process Mining: Data science in Action (Coursera)

Process mining is the missing link between model-based process analysis and data-oriented analysis techniques. Through concrete data sets and easy to use software the course provides data science knowledge that can be applied directly to analyze and improve processes in a variety of domains. Data science is the profession of the future, because organizations that are unable to use (big) data in a smart way will not survive. It is not sufficient to focus on data storage and data analysis. The data scientist also needs to relate data to process analysis.

BPMN meets DMN: Business Process and Decision Modeling (openHPI)

This course introduces concepts of business process modeling using the Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) industry standard. Participants will learn the elements of process models and their precise meaning.

Decision models complement process models by representing concrete, operational decisions, both with their structure and their decision logics. The course centers around concepts and language to describe and analyze business processes and decisions. It does not cover methods on how to model, improve, monitor or implement business processes. Still, a deep understanding of business processes and decisions is a useful basis for these activities.

A Step-by-Step Introduction to Process Mining (openHPI)

Process mining is widely used in organizations to improve the understanding of business processes, based on data. Therefore, process mining is also called “data science for business processes”. While process mining has gone mainstream, there are many underlying concepts and techniques, and these are complex. The goal of this online course is to provide a general understanding of the concepts and techniques behind process mining. The course will be most valuable for domain experts, whose business processes are investigated, and for professionals in IT and in business consulting. We aim at providing a common understanding and a common language that facilitates communication between all stakeholders involved in process mining projects.
