This paper introduces and elaborates a semi-automatic methodology for improving business processes. It holds the concept of process ontology matching, based on ontologies derived from business process models and relevant reference models. The ontology matching approach provides information for indicating deviations between "TO-BE" and "AS-IS" business processes. It ultimately identifies opportunities for modeling and analyzing the current processes, and optimizing and redesigning (ideal) “To-BE” processes. The present methodology has been successfully developed, applied and tested in the context of
eBest
project and on higher education processes. Furthermore, the prospective of applying the methodology on vocational education of healthcare professionals particularly nurses has been studied in
Med-Assess
project and is considered for further development in
Pro-Nursing
project.
