Description

Business Analysts working in organizations that use an Agile approach are often referred to as Agile Business Analysts, and they play an instrumental role in helping teams efficiently deliver valuable, high-quality products.

One of the leading organizations in providing standards for Agile Business Analysts is the International Institute of Business Analysis, better known as the IIBA. The IIBA provides guidance on the skills and techniques that are important for Agile Business Analysts to be successful. And these standards can be found in their publication, the Agile Extension to the BABOK Guide.

In this course, within 3 hours of high-quality video lectures, we break down the Agile Extension standards to help you grasp those concepts. This includes:

  • The role and responsibilities of an Agile Business Analyst
  • Core agile business analysis principles
  • Analysis of the Strategy, Initiative, and Delivery horizons
  • Application of the business analysis principles in each horizon
  • Advanced agile business analysis techniques

And since 2 out of 3 organizations, nearly 70% of them, are using Agile today – these skills and techniques are in high demand.

This comprehensive Agile Business Analyst course is endorsed by the International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA®) and has been verified to thoroughly cover the standards explained in the Agile Extension to the BABOK Guide. While this course is not meant directly as exam prep, the knowledge taught can be leveraged to assist you in passing the IIBA’s Agile Analysis Certification (AAC), since its questions are based on the Agile Extension standards.

As an added bonus, with this course, you get the information explained from the viewpoints of multiple instructors. Allowing you to have complex topics broken down from different perspectives, aiding in your comprehension. And as expected, we have activities and quizzes throughout the curriculum to help you validate and apply your new knowledge and skills.

So whether you are:

– an aspiring Business Analyst looking to gain the knowledge to land your first Agile BA position,
– a current Business Analyst wanting to increase your Agile BA skills, or
– someone who wants to become AAC certified

This course is perfect for you!
