Villanova U Launches Business Process Management Online Program
Villanova
University has launched a new Master Certificate in Business
Process Management, a three-course program that can be completed
entirely online.
Business process management (BPM) is about improving an
organization's
business processes to reduce costs and increase revenue. Business
analysis is one type of BPM that focuses on aligning business processes
with information technology to improve the flow of information within a
company.
Villanova's Master Certificate in BPM program consists of three
video-based courses:
- Essentials of Business Process Management;
- Mastering Process Methodology and Solutions; and
- Advanced Process Strategy and Practices.
Professors lead the live, online courses, and students log in at the
same time to participate in the class, including whiteboard
discussions. Students who can't attend the courses at the scheduled
time have the option of accessing recorded lectures at any time through
their computer or mobile device. Students who successfully complete the
three courses, project, and final exam become a Certified Professional
in Business Process Management (CPBPM), certified by Villanova
University.
According to the university, the certification prepares graduates
for
industry-recognized certifications, including Lean Six Sigma Black Belt
Certification offered by Villanova University; the PMP or CAPM
certification offered by the Project Management Institute (PMI); and
certification by the International
Institute of Business Analysis
(IIBA).
Villanova University is a private university located in
Pennsylvania.
It is part of the University Alliance (UA), an organization that
facilitates the promotion and online delivery of associate's,
bachelor's, and master's degrees, as well as professional certificate
programs, from traditional universities and institutions.
