This curriculum spans the technical, organizational, and governance dimensions of process mining with a scope comparable to a multi-workshop program embedded within an ongoing internal capability build, addressing real-world challenges from log extraction and model validation to ethical deployment and integration with business process management.

Module 1: Foundations of Process Mining in Enterprise Contexts

  • Selecting event log sources from heterogeneous systems such as ERP, CRM, and BPM platforms based on data availability and business criticality
  • Mapping organizational process ownership to ensure alignment between technical analysis and business stakeholder responsibilities
  • Defining scope boundaries for process mining initiatives to avoid overreach into unrelated workflows
  • Assessing maturity of existing process documentation to determine baseline for conformance checking
  • Establishing data governance policies for handling personally identifiable information in event logs
  • Choosing between on-premise and cloud-based process mining tools based on data residency and compliance requirements
  • Integrating process mining initiatives with existing data warehouse architectures and ETL pipelines
  • Documenting assumptions about timestamps, activity names, and case identifiers during initial data intake

Module 2: Event Log Extraction and Preprocessing

  • Designing SQL queries to extract event logs from transactional databases without impacting production system performance
  • Resolving inconsistent case identifiers caused by system migrations or data merging across business units
  • Handling missing or malformed timestamps due to system downtime or logging errors
  • Normalizing activity names across systems where synonyms describe the same business action
  • Filtering out test, bot, or administrative transactions from raw event logs to prevent process model distortion
  • Deciding on granularity level for activities (e.g., screen-level vs. transaction-level) based on analysis goals
  • Implementing incremental log updates to support continuous process monitoring
  • Validating completeness of event logs against known process volumes and durations

Module 3: Process Discovery Techniques and Model Construction

  • Selecting between Alpha, Heuristic, and Inductive miners based on log complexity and desired model accuracy
  • Adjusting noise thresholds in discovery algorithms to balance model simplicity and real-world variability
  • Interpreting directly-follows graphs to identify high-frequency and low-frequency paths
  • Handling invisible or skipped tasks in discovered models when logs lack full observability
  • Deciding when to split a monolithic process model into subprocesses based on functional or organizational boundaries
  • Validating discovered models with subject matter experts using playback techniques and scenario testing
  • Managing computational load when processing large-scale logs with billions of events
  • Documenting model limitations due to incomplete or biased data coverage

Module 4: Conformance Checking and Deviation Analysis

  • Choosing between token-based replay and alignment-based conformance techniques based on performance and precision needs
  • Quantifying deviation severity by linking non-conforming paths to compliance, cost, or risk impact
  • Identifying root causes of frequent deviations through correlation with organizational units or system configurations
  • Handling cases where the normative model is outdated or does not reflect actual practice
  • Configuring tolerance levels for acceptable deviations in high-variability processes
  • Integrating conformance results into audit reporting frameworks for regulatory compliance
  • Mapping deviations to control weaknesses in SOX, GDPR, or ISO 9001 contexts
  • Automating alerts for real-time detection of critical non-conformances

Module 5: Performance and Bottleneck Analysis

  • Calculating cycle times per activity and path while accounting for parallel execution and rework loops
  • Distinguishing between system-induced delays and human-induced waiting times in timestamp analysis
  • Identifying resource bottlenecks by correlating workload distribution with processing times
  • Adjusting time calculations for time zones, holidays, and non-working hours in global processes
  • Visualizing throughput times using heatmaps and histograms to communicate bottlenecks to stakeholders
  • Setting performance baselines before process improvement initiatives for impact measurement
  • Attributing delays to specific organizational units or handover points in cross-functional processes
  • Validating performance metrics against operational SLAs and service contracts

Module 6: Organizational and Social Network Analysis

  • Extracting role-based patterns from resource assignments to identify de facto organizational structures
  • Detecting shadow workflows where informal teams handle cases outside official procedures
  • Measuring workload imbalance across employees or departments using case volume and duration metrics
  • Identifying key performers or bottlenecks based on centrality measures in social network graphs
  • Assessing compliance with segregation of duties policies using co-occurrence analysis of resource actions
  • Mapping actual collaboration patterns against formal reporting lines for change management planning

  • Defining triggers for re-mining cycles based on system changes or performance degradation
  • Linking process variants to customer segments or product types for targeted optimization

Module 8: Advanced Analytics and Predictive Process Monitoring

  • Designing features from event logs for predicting case outcomes such as delays or rejections
