Course Overview

Business analysis is exactly what it sounds like: an analysis of your business. Every business has different needs and requires different solutions to meet those needs. Business analysts work to determine the needs of a business and figure out how to meet them. In some cases, a business analyst may identify problems and help find ways to solve them in the form of initiating a project, launching a product, or designing a service. This is an important part of making sure any business succeeds because it allows to constantly work toward a goal and actively take steps to reach it.

This course teaches business analysis essentials to both new and experienced practitioners focusing more on practical implications. It supports and expands on the standards outlined in the IIBA® BABOK® Guide V3.0. Mentor-led workshops allow students to practice the techniques as they learn them. Depending on the participant’s skill level, the workshop cases and discussions inspire learning insights for every level of experience. Students are encouraged to bring their own projects to class. Using new techniques on a current project often highlights missing requirements and gives the student specific next steps to follow after class. To identify the best solutions for real business needs, this course also provides an extensive inventory of tools and techniques for use in business analysis work.

IN THIS COURSE STUDENTS WILL LEARN TO:

Analyze and scope the area of analysis, working with project managers, product owners, and business sponsors to clarify the level and complexity of the business analysis effort needed for the project.
Select the appropriate elicitation technique to efficiently identify critical requirements.
Analyze and refine business and functional requirements.
Ask the right questions through the use of interviewing templates developed specifically for business analysis elicitation.
Identify the core components necessary to analyze a business area.
Plan an approach for analyzing, categorizing, and managing requirements. Determine the level of formality required and consider options for documenting and packaging requirements based on project type, priorities, and risks.
Identify techniques and documentation options appropriate for various project types (product development, COTS, maintenance, business process improvement, new development, etc.).
Define testing objectives and verify requirements are testable.
Conduct effective requirements reviews to improve the quality of requirements deliverables
Build strong relationships with project stakeholders.
Apply new communication strategies for eliciting and interacting with virtual teams.
Anticipate issues, think proactively, and use critical thinking skills to plan stakeholder elicitation sessions.
This course is part of our ECBA, CCBA, and CBAP prep series, helping you prepare for the certifications offered by the International Institute of Business Analysis ( iiba.org ).

Component B: Latest renowned tools, techniques & methodologies that business analyst uses:

Value Proposition Canvas (VPC) & Business Model Canvas (BMC)	Success means going from business idea (a new market, improve a business unit, a new technology, etc.) to a profitable and scalable business model with the minimum amount of time and money wasted. To achieve success, you need a differentiated Value Proposition (VPC) that customers want embedded in a Business Model Canvas (BMC) that can scale and generate profits. Crucial to this is the right timing, in the right business environment, with the right aligned team that can assure sound execution.
Design thinking	Design Thinking is a process for creative problem solving. It has a human-centered core. It encourages organizations to focus on the people they’re creating for, which leads to better products, services, and internal processes. It is a proven and repeatable problem solving protocol that any business or profession can employ to achieve big results. Design thinking combines creative and critical thinking that allows information and ideas to be organized, decisions to be made, situations to be improved, and knowledge to be gained.
Design Sprint	A design sprint is a time-constrained, five-phase process that uses design thinking with the aim of reducing the risk when bringing a new product, service or a feature to the market. A design sprint is a five-day process for answering critical business questions through design, prototyping, and testing ideas with customers.
Customer Journey Mapping (CJM)	Customer journey mapping (also called user journey mapping) is the process of creating a customer journey map, a visual story of your customers’ interactions with your brand. This exercise helps businesses step into their customer’s shoes and see their business from the customer’s perspective. It helps you tell the story of your customers’ experiences with your brand across all touchpoints. Whether your customers interact with you via social media, email, live chat or other channels, mapping the customer journey out visually helps ensure no customer slips through cracks.
BPM	Business process management (BPM) is a discipline in operations management in which people use various methods to discover, model, analyze, measure, improve, optimize, and automate business processes. Any combination of methods used to manage a company’s business processes is BPM.
