Course overview
The Business Analysis Practice Practitioner will help you act in a similar way to a structural engineer in building: it will enable you to ensure a business has a solid foundation by identifying potential problems and developing solutions to keep the business running smoothly.
Without business analysis, a business might struggle to operate effectively or even fail altogether. Business analysis is a professional discipline of identifying business needs and establishing solutions to solve any problems within the business, and the official BCS Business Analysis Practice Practitioner syllabus will guide you through a range of strategic analysis and performance management techniques, which are invaluable for a career in business analysis.
Should you wish to attain recognition as a professional Business Analyst, this certification will allow you to take one of the 5 steps toward securing the International Diploma in Business Analysis. Alternatively, our Business Analyst Career Programme is perfect for students looking to kickstart and thrive in their careers as Business Analysis Professionals.
