What you'll learn:
- Process Mining and Process Intelligence
- Learn applied process mining with Celonis (partly free) and free vibe-coded tools, so you master the logic, avoid vendor lock-in, and stay future-proof.
- The role of process mining in the broader context of business process management
- Hands-on practical experience with process mining use cases of various degrees of complexity
PROCESS INTELLIGENCE & PROCESS MINING: A TOOL-AGNOSTIC, CONCEPT-FIRST MASTERCLASS
*** This course contains the use of artificial intelligence. ***
Master process mining in a way that works across every platform.
This course teaches you the foundations and practical skills of process mining using a concept-driven, vendor-neutral approach.
You’ll learn universal principles that remain valid no matter which tool your organization uses.
Industry tools — including Celonis Free Plan — are used only as illustrative examples of what modern process mining platforms typically offer. Your learning is never dependent on a commercial license or interface.
And best of all, the course includes your own free process mining tool + teaches you how to build a simple yet functional prototype tool using AI.
Why This Course Takes a Tool-Agnostic Approach
Process mining is extremely powerful for revealing how work actually flows across an organization. But many learners struggle because:
Commercial tools differ in features
Some capabilities require paid licenses
Interfaces change over time
It’s unclear which tool to commit to
This course removes those barriers by focusing on what truly matters:
durable, transferable, tool-independent skills.
Commercial platforms — such as Celonis — are shown only to help you understand the type of functionality available in mature software.
Your education stays centered on concepts, logic, and practice.
Using Celonis as an Industry Example
Celonis is widely regarded as one of the leading process mining platforms. Because of its strong market presence, it serves in this course as a reference example of what a modern process mining tool looks like.
All examples remain at the level of industry-standard capabilities, not specific implementations.
Some Celonis features now require a paid license. Where this applies, those sections are clearly labeled.
BONUS: Your Own Free Process Mining Tool (Included)
Every student receives access to a PM4Py-powered process mining tool developed for educational use, together with a free process mining tool using Google AIStudio.
This allows you to practice:
Process discovery
Variant exploration
Basic bottleneck detection
Throughput & case-level analysis
No subscriptions. No vendor lock-in.
Just learning.
Learn to Build a Simple Process Mining Prototype Using AI
A unique feature of this course is the Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Vibe Coding Module, where you learn:
How to ingest event logs
How to generate simple process flows
How to create minimal dashboards
How to use AI to support code generation
How to understand the internal mechanics behind process discovery
These exercises are:
intentionally minimal
purely educational
not necessarily a substitute for commercial tools
not designed to replicate Celonis or any other platform
The goal is to deepen your understanding of process mining principles — not to recreate professional software.
This makes you a more knowledgeable, independent practitioner on any tool.
Process Mining With Large Language Models (LLMs)
The course also explores how modern LLMs can enhance process mining workflows:
Automatic explanations of process graphs
Detection of bottlenecks
Hypothesis generation
Assisted event log interpretation
Support in building simple process mining components
This prepares you for the future of process intelligence.
What You Will Learn:
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
Explain the foundations of process intelligence & process mining
Perform process discovery and interpret real flows
Detect bottlenecks and inefficiencies
Work confidently across multiple platforms
Use your own included practice tool
Build simple process mining prototypes using AI
Apply process mining concepts in healthcare, finance, logistics, manufacturing, and government
Use LLMs to support analysis
Communicate insights to decision-makers
Who This Course Is For:
Operations & Production
Manufacturing, supply chain, logistics, Lean, Kanban, JIT, Six Sigma, Theory of Constraints.
Healthcare
Patient flow, diagnostics, scheduling, pathway management.
Finance & Government
Loan handling, claims processing, compliance, auditing.
Digital Transformation
BPM / BPMN, process mapping, RPA (UiPath, AA), Digital Twin initiatives.
Analytics & Data Science
Professionals wanting practical, business-impactful skills.
Beginners & Curious Learners
Anyone wanting to understand how real processes behave — not how they’re drawn on paper.
What This Course Is NOT
Not a Celonis certification
Not a vendor-specific tool tutorial
Not a BPMN course
Not a data science course
Not enterprise integration training
It is a universal, practical, concept-first process mining course with illustrative examples.
A Note About Tool Access
Some commercial tools require paid licenses for certain features.
Where applicable, these sections are labeled as “license required.”
You will always be able to complete the course using:
The provided PM4Py tool
Generic exercises
Your AI/Vibe-coded prototypes
Your learning never depends on paid software.
