Message from the<br />
<strong>Centre</strong> of Excellence<br />
Directors<br />
Effective business analysts are very much in demand<br />
today – in the technical arena as well as the business<br />
side of projects. But formal education is becoming a key<br />
requirement. The days of just ‘winging it’ are over.<br />
Our BA training programs focus on the vital ingredients to be<br />
an effective BA – from planning, communicating, eliciting, and<br />
analyzing to validating and managing the user requirements –<br />
throughout the project life cycle.<br />
Our curriculum is aligned with the latest version of the IIBA®<br />
Body of Knowledge (BABOK®), and we are confident that upon<br />
graduation from our program, you will be ready to sit for the<br />
CBAP® exam.<br />
Your participation in these programs is an investment that will<br />
pay major dividends for your organization and your career.<br />
