				<link>http://www.pega.com/NewsEvents/Webcasts/detail.asp?eid=97</link>
				<description><![CDATA[WEBCAST: (11/5/2009) Smart Case Management: Why it’s so smart. :  Case management is emerging as one the critical application categories for BPM, particularly for knowledge workers. Traditional BPM approaches generally focus on structured processes. Frequently, this results in rigid models that don't support the dynamic, flexible nature of case processing requirements. This webinar will focus on the emerging salient capabilities and features of smart case management: including the dynamic situational application of policies and process fragments for cases, case life cycles, case content, case subjects, and case event management.  Two industry experts, Forrester's Connie Moore and Pega's Dr. Setrag Khoshafian, discuss this, along with what exactly case management is, and how best to support this crucial type of work.  
   In this Webinar you'll learn: 

 
   What exactly is smart case management, and how does it relate to Business Process Management 
  What are the business benefits of automating case management solutions 
  What has been some of the challenges in supporting case management through BPM 
  How  Smart Case Management provides the agility needed to support the dynamic and ad hoc aspects of case management 
  What types of case management applications and workers benefit most from a technology-enabled approach to case management

				<title><![CDATA[Which Comes First? BPM or SOA?]]></title>
				<link>http://www.pega.com/NewsEvents/Webcasts/detail.asp?eid=17</link>
				<description><![CDATA[WEBCAST: (5/10/2007) Which Comes First? BPM or SOA?:  Confused about which comes first, BPM or SOA? Should you focus on business improvement or on integrating to your legacy environment? 
 If you answered yes to these questions, you can't miss this webinar! 
 You will learn from a successful BPM roll-out at BB&T, how to focus on business goals — in this case delivering mission-critical multi-channel account opening — while working in parallel with your SOA team. Because a mature BPMS is designed to interoperate seamlessly within a services-oriented environment, you can actually engage the business and focus on your goals while aspects of the underlying infrastructure are evolved. Most importantly, by focusing on the business goals, you develop the integration points most critically needed, rather than wait until you "boil the ocean" before you begin key process-improvement initiatives. 
 You will also learn from a leading BPM analyst at Forrester: 
 
 Why SOA alone will not drive business change  
 What business users need to see before they engage  
 How BPM engages people to drive "quick wins"  
 What it means to be "designed for people" and to "Build for Change®"   ]]></description>

				<link>http://www.pega.com/NewsEvents/Webcasts/detail.asp?eid=28</link>
				<description><![CDATA[WEBCAST: (8/23/2006) Account Opening: Innovation and Growth with Business Process Management:  In this webcast, discover how banks are applying Business Process Management to consumer and business banking. You'll hear from banking industry experts on the challenges and rewards of turning an arduous process into a smart growth initiative.  
 Financial institutions are under tremendous pressure to grow revenue organically. They must acquire, on-board, and cross-sell new customers intelligently. This is forcing them to evaluate outdated processes that stand in the way of differentiation and responsiveness. The account-opening process is a complex and mission-critical function, yet it remains largely manual, time-consuming, and inflexible. This prevents banks from being able to innovate and respond rapidly to new opportunities. It also increases the risk of non-compliance with regulations and company policies. Account opening is a prime area where process improvements can lead to increased revenue, deeper customer relationships, and lower operational risk.  ]]></description>
