Welcome<br />

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 />

Green Programs<br />

Please note: Participants<br />

will receive all program<br />

learning materials<br />

electronically, and are<br />

asked to bring a suitable<br />

tablet or laptop PC<br />

to class. Alternative<br />

arrangements are available<br />
