Many people are unaware of the discipline of business analysis, having never thought of it as a disciplined set of knowledge, skills and techniques. Therefore managers and SMEs who work with BAs often have no idea of the value that is provides.

Fundamentals of Business Analysis addresses the entire scope of business analysis including before, during and after a solution to a business problem is implemented and also covers enterprise business analysis in order to provide an overview of the value that business analysis delivers in terms of executing strategy – both doing the right work and doing the right work in the right way.

This foundational course looks at the whole organisation and how business analysis is applied in articulating and prioritising business needs, identifying and assessing solution options, making recommendations, defining solution scope, requirements management within a project, supporting a solution once it is in place, making sure the business objectives are met and continuously improving the solution to increase its business value.

Managers, business subject matter experts, developers, project managers, junior business analysts and anyone else who is responsible for delivering value through project - and programme-based work - would benefit from taking this course.
