Presentation of the project results
Changes are possible, the course content is updated regularly.
After this course, you will be familiar with approaches, process models and systems to make processes even more successful.
You will also be able to systematically analyze processes, identify potential for improvement and optimize them in an efficient and targeted manner using lean, kaizen and CIP methods.
The course is aimed at people who want to take on process responsibility, managers, division and department heads and people with knowledge of project and quality management.
Holistic process management takes into account corporate structures and culture as well as management principles and is therefore a decisive factor for the success of the company. Process managers are therefore in demand in large and medium-sized companies in all sectors.
Didactic concept
Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).
You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.
Virtual classroom alfaview®
Lessons take place using modern alfaview® video technology - either from the comfort of your own home or at our premises at Bildungszentrum. The entire course can see each other face-to-face via alfaview®, communicate with each other in lip-sync voice quality and work on joint projects. Of course, you can also see and talk to your connected trainers live at any time and you will be taught by your lecturers in real time for the entire duration of the course. The lessons are not e-learning, but real live face-to-face lessons via video technology.
