Business Analyst Training Path
API Training’s Business Analyst Training path is a tiered approach to training that will address the skill level and needs of a Business Analyst. Our approach is designed to develop fundamental business analysis skills and then build onto those skills with more training on advanced topics. The role of the Business Analyst has grown in importance as companies seek to improve their overall success rate in the delivery of their software and technology projects. According to Capability Maturity Model Integration, organizations interested in process improvement need to adopt industry standards from the Business Analysis Body of Knowledge to lift their project delivery from the ad-hoc to the managed level. The Business Analysis Body of Knowledge (BABOK) was developed by The International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA) a non-profit professional association with the purpose of supporting and promoting the discipline of business analysis. The Business Analysis Body of Knowledge (BABOK) is the written guide to the collection of business analysis knowledge reflecting current best practice, providing a framework that describes the areas of knowledge, with associated activities and tasks and skills required.
