The objective of this one-day programme is to show through practical application how state-of-the-art techniques in business process automation using Robotic Process Automation (“RPA”) can be applied.

This is a fast-moving field which has exploded in the last few years and is peppered with expensive and sometimes painful learning experiences for organisations carrying it out. This programme distils this experience into a digestible form and provides key learning to grasp the potential of these systems and how to apply them.

In typical Catalyst style, this practical course will enable delegates to consider how, when and where the application of RPA would be most relevant in their organisations. The course draws on several real-world case studies.

The course demonstrates how the application of CI tools is highly relevant in a robotic process environment.

Delivered By Ian Fairweather, Angelique Macrez
  • You would like to learn about Robotic Process Automation (RPA), and how it fits with Lean /Lean Six Sigma and Change Management.
  • Your organisation is, or is planning to, implement Robotic Process Automation solutions; how do these work in practice with CI and in particular a process thinking perspective?
  • You want to understand the benefits of RPA, but also any pitfalls encountered in practice so you can avoid these issues in the first place.
  • You want to hear from an instructor with real-world expertise, a highly skilled and experienced practitioner, both in RPA and Lean/Lean Six Sigma.
  • You want to learn about Process Mining and how this can support/accelerate process improvement projects but also gain insight into how your automations are performing.
  • Gain a vital grounding in the principles and practice of RPA and how it can help your organisation become more efficient and effective.
  • Separate the reality from the hype by understanding where to apply this approach so that it makes sense and provides benefit, rather than making a process worse through unintended or unforeseen outcomes.
  • Be able to mitigate against some of the more common and expensive issues that can compromise your RPA programme.
  • Understand the connections between RPA and Continuous Improvement so efforts in both are aligned and mutually supported, delivering value that benefits the organisation and its customers.

This course is currently being run as a virtual classroom instructor led programme using Zoom with breakout rooms and other hands-on technology solutions for interactive exercises
