Module 4: Subprocesses, Error Handling & Compensation

Handle complexity with collapsed subprocesses, error boundary events, and compensation activities.

BPMN Practitioner Certification

Complete all 7 modules and pass the final exam to earn your BPMN Practitioner — recognized across the financial services industry.

This course is built for anyone who documents, reviews, or relies on business processes in banking and financial services. Whether you are an operations analyst mapping out reconciliation workflows, a compliance officer reviewing control points in transaction monitoring, a business analyst translating requirements into process designs, or a team lead trying to onboard new joiners faster — BPMN 2.0 gives you a common visual language that everyone from front-office to audit can understand. No prior process modelling experience is required. If you have ever drawn a flowchart on a whiteboard or sketched a process in PowerPoint, you already have the right instincts; this course will give you the formal notation to make those diagrams precise, standardised, and regulator-ready.

What sets this course apart is its exclusive focus on banking and financial services. Every example, every exercise, and every quiz question is drawn from real operational scenarios: KYC onboarding handoffs, SWIFT payment exception handling, AML alert triage workflows, and regulatory reporting pipelines. You will not waste time learning abstract theory — instead, you will build actual process maps that reflect the work you do every day. By the end of the seven modules, you will be able to read and create BPMN 2.0 diagrams that meet the documentation standards expected by the ECB, PRA, FCA, and internal audit teams. You will understand pools, lanes, gateways, subprocesses, error handling, and how to model complex cross-departmental flows with confidence.

This course is completely free, self-paced, and designed to fit around your working schedule. There are no deadlines and no live sessions — work through the modules at your own pace, whether that means one module a day or one a week. Each module includes educational content, practical banking examples, and a short quiz to test your understanding. After completing all seven modules, you will earn your BPMN Practitioner certification from Insight Centric — a credential that validates your ability to create professional, standards-compliant process maps for the financial services industry.
