From BPMN model to agentic workflow — step by step
You know BPMN. You know what AI agents are. Now learn how to connect those two worlds — which BPMN tasks lend themselves to agentic automation and how to design the human-agent handoff.
What you'll learn
-
BPMN 2.0 refresher and agentisable tasks
Which task types are candidates for agentic takeover — and which definitely are not.
-
Event-driven agent patterns
How message and escalation events in BPMN translate to agent triggers.
-
Handoff design: human ↔ agent
Patterns for a seamless transition — including fallback for low confidence scores.
-
BPMN-to-agentic conversion in practice
You bring your own process model and convert a subprocess into an agentic design.

About the trainer
Wiemer Kuik
Founder & senior agentic BPM advisor
Wiemer Kuik has worked at the intersection of process management, organisational change and technology for 40+ years. As a former transformation advisor at major Dutch organisations, he knows what it costs when processes don't work — and what it delivers when they do. His focus is on the practical side of agentic BPM: not the hype story, but the architectural choices, governance setup and adoption approach that determine whether an implementation actually succeeds.
LinkedInParticipant experiences
I have been modelling in BPMN for ten years. After this day I see my own models fundamentally differently — which tasks an agent does better and how to draw the boundary.
The handoff pattern we worked out is immediately usable in our current project. The investment of one day saved us weeks of redesign.
Finally a session where BPMN and AI are not treated as two separate worlds. The connection made here is exactly what I was missing.
As a consultant I now have a clear framework to advise clients on which BPMN tasks they can automate. Concrete handles, no theory.
The event-driven section directly improved my architecture designs. I now see how to link BPMN events to agent triggers without having to redraw everything.
