Course Overview

Business and Systems analysis has traditionally used data flow diagrams, entity relationship diagram and flow charts. Modern methods use the Unified Modelling Language where these diagrams are replaced by use case, activity and class diagrams. This area of topics is also often referred to as Business Process Analysis (BPA) or Business Process Modelling.

Our course will teach you how to analyse and model business processes using industry standard extensions to UML, in order to improve and increase productivity.

Analysts can use UML / Business Analysis methods to model both the current state of an enterprise and its intended future state. To move from the current state to the future state may or may not require IT developments, although it is common.
