RESTON, VA (June 2, 2011) Learning Tree International (NASDAQ NGM: LTRE) has announced the introduction of a new course entitled

Implementing Business Process Improvement (BPI) in Your Organization

. BPI is a systematic approach to improving organizational activities by reducing and eliminating inefficient activities or enhancing value-adding activities. In this course, our expert instructors teach attendees how to improve quality and enhance satisfaction while lowering costs and increasing timeliness.

Workshops and immersive case studies provide attendees with the skills to implement business process improvement, including:

• Defining the organization's approach to BPI
• Applying the BPI framework to processes
• Building a balanced scorecard to identify business drivers
• Mapping the current business process
• Recognizing opportunities for process innovation
• Creating appropriate measures for process performance
• Implementing the BPI framework

“In today's business environment, many companies are overloaded with inefficient business practices,” explained Jennifer Urick, Vice President of Product Development for Learning Tree International. “And that drives down business performance. Using real-life work situations, this course helps attendees develop a personal and specific action plan that allows them to effectively implement BPI back at their workplace.”
