This 5-day course focuses on learning practical business analysis skills that can be used in the workplace. Course delegates should be able to return to their working environments and work as an effective Business Analyst, immediately adding value and building relationships with project stakeholders.

The course focuses on learning how to do business analysis in the real world, in both agile and formal/waterfall environments. It also covers the whole of the syllabus for the BCS certificate in Requirements Engineering, meaning delegates have the option of taking this exam at the end of the course.

The course is very practical, with around 50% of training time devoted to individual and team exercises. During the course, delegates will attend daily stand-ups, produce a product vision and user stories, perform poker planning and interview product owners and other stakeholders. A simple case study is used throughout the course, enabling attendees to experience the life-cycle of a project and the deliverables produced.

Delegates work in teams simulating a real project and are encouraged to make short informal presentations at the end of some exercises to build their confidence and develop the skills of peer review.

This three-day course focuses on the tools and techniques you need when gathering and documenting requirements as a Business Analyst. 

This course is recommended for people who already have some experience in gathering and documenting requirements and would like to formalise their skills and gain the BCS certificate in Requirements Engineering. 

No matter how much experience you have, the 5-day course is designed to be the best possible entry onto the BCS International Diploma. 

This course should only be taken by candidates who have started their Diploma elsewhere and already completed the BCS Foundation in Business Analysis course.

Understanding how to apply business analysis change techniques at a strategic level is as important as project level application. 

Designed to be taken by candidates who have completed our Fundamentals of Business Analysis - including BCS Requirements Engineering course, this draws together and helps you to revise the key concepts, techniques and approaches required within Business Analysis.

This course is a great wrap-up-and-remind, designed to help BCS Diploma candidates to cover the final elements required in the BCS Foundation Certificate in Business Analysis syllabus and to complete the exam.

Attendees will gain an understanding of the range of concepts, approaches and techniques that are applicable to Business Analysis.

The course focuses on key understanding of these concepts and approaches and less on the practical application. 

Note that although this course is named as a foundation course, many candidates find it preferable to sit this course as the last course they do on the way to the diploma, using it as a wrap-up-and-remind course.

Agile techniques have been gaining traction in recent years, helping companies to work more efficiently and effectively when delivering projects. This AgilePM course shows how to successfully combine Agile techniques with more traditional governance methodologies, such as PRINCE2® and PMI®.
