Description
Hi there!Â
This course is designed for practitioners with a few years of experience who want to become significantly better at business analysis.
I've been doing business analysis for more than a decade, and I've seen what works and what doesn't work and how the theory from popular industry books and frameworks (such as the BABOKÂ® Guide) applies to real life scenarios. In the course, we will follow the structure of the Guide to the Business Analysis Body of KnowledgeÂ® (BABOKÂ® Guide) and will discuss it in detail and augment with real-life examples from different industries, mock applications and walk-throughs.
This course will help you build a holistic understanding of business analysis knowledge areas, learn all the techniques from the BABOK Guide, and form an opinion on what good business analysis looks like.
The knowledge gained in the course will help you prepare for a much sought for certification - Certified Business Analysis Professionalâ„¢ (CBAPÂ®). You will get the theory and practical skills to apply business analysis in a variety of contexts. Business analysis offers a variety of skills that can be easily transferrable- you will benefit from them as a project manager, a change manager, an operations specialist, an architect or a strategist.
As a bonus, you will get CBAPÂ® sample exam questions with detailed explanations of the answers to test your knowledge before going for a real exam.
I hope you'll enjoy!
Have fun.
Igor.

The Certified Business Analysis Professionalâ„¢ (CBAPÂ®) which tests your extensive (5+Â years) business analysis experience and in-depth knowledge of the profession. The CBAPÂ® recipients are recognised as the leading, senior members of the BA community.
This course provides with enough information to pass any level of certification above, and is specifically designed for the hardest and most rewarding level -Â Certified Business Analysis Professionalâ„¢ (CBAPÂ®).
But more importantly, it will help you become a better business analyst.
