What Will I Learn?

• Conduct a structured business analysis using globally recognized techniques to understand needs and design solutions that maximize value for all stakeholders.
• Conduct meetings between customers and solution providers in search of optimal and clearly defined solutions.
• This competence will leverage your career and differentiate you as a professional, making you recognized as a key part in solving problems.
• This course will be the basis of your studies for a professional certification in Business Analysis from IIBA® (International Institute of Business Analysis).

Requirements

• To be able to follow this course, it is not necessary to be an experienced business analyst, but you must have a basic understanding of how a company works.
• It is also recommended that you have knowledge of what a project is and the basics of project planning and control.

Target audience

• The target student of this course is the professional who already practices BA in his work, but perhaps in an unstructured way. He has already participated in projects that aim to improve business performance by creating new things (software, processes, rules, campaigns, training) or improving those that already exist, but he misses a structured approach to bridge the gap between the needs that originated the projects and the solutions that have been created. In these projects, after a lot of effort, days worked, money spent, stress and battle to deliver the result, it seems that "this was not exactly what the client wanted".
• This professional in many companies is hired and allocated with the formal role of Business Analyst. But the simple name of the position described on the badge does not give him the necessary skills to act effectively. Training is needed.
• Business Analysis is certainly also a key differentiator for Business Consultants, Project Managers, Process Analysts, Quality Analysts, Systems Analysts, Requirements Analysts, Engineers, Corporate Architects, Software Architects, Programmers, and many other professions that can benefit from a different look at the businesses they are serving.
• If you are still a professional at the beginning of your career and would like to become a Business Analyst, you can take advantage of this course to guide you in your career avoiding that you have to go through a lot of suffering to learn “the right path”.
• If you are already a senior professional with a lot of practical experience, but little theoretical instruction, this course will help you organize your knowledge and experiences by placing a certain formalism in your way of acting, helping you to work more consciously and effectively, even better able to serve your customers.
