There is no live instructor for this course, so it might not be appropriate for students who require the guidance of a live instructor.

Course Overview:

In this introductory self-paced course, you learn how to do process discovery, create process models, and capture process documentation with IBM Blueworks Live.

Blueworks Live provides simple-to-understand product features that facilitate collaborative process discovery and modeling.

This course is designed for novice Blueworks Live business users, and it focuses on two main topics. First, you learn the core modeling skills and methods that improve the speed and quality of defining processes with BPMN. Second, you learn the core product skills and methods that are needed to model processes with IBM Blueworks Live.

The lab exercises are designed to reinforce the concepts that you learn throughout the course, and allow you to practice the use of Blueworks Live. The exercises cover skills such as capturing process details in a Blueworks Live discovery map, conducting playbacks, and creating a process diagram.

Note: These exercises require an established Blueworks Live account, which your organization must provide for you.
