The Hindu Business Line : Certification course for business analysis

I have been working in a reputed software company for the past 10 years. My expertise is mainly in business analysis for various software projects. I would like to know whether there is any certification course for Business Analysis?

The International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA) offers the Certified Business Analysis Professional (CBAP) Programme for experienced business analysts. This programme complies with ISO 17204 Standard.

A CBAP is a recognised expert in identifying the business needs of an organisation to determine the appropriate business solutions. The CBAP Certification requires one to have five years (7500 hours) of business analysis work experience in the last 10 years, engaged in tasks specifically related to defined knowledge areas. The six knowledge areas are enterprise analysis, requirements planning and management, requirements elicitation, requirements analysis and documentation, requirements communication and solution assessment and validation. After passing the examination and after getting the certification, one can use the “Certified Business Analysis Professional (CBAP)” designation. For further details look at www.theiiba.org .

It is to be kept in mind that this domain of Business Analysis certification is now in the evolving stage.
