As a business analyst I must respond to the challenges of today’s highly competitive
global economy by developing practical, creative and financially
sound solutions. This course gave me the foundations to do so utilising tools to
perform gap analysis and benefits management, the impact of Agile software
development and an introduction to business architecture.
There are a range of business process modelling and analysis techniques. The course helped me look at the ways to investigate and analyse how my firm carries out its operations and understand how to apply different process modelling techniques.
I learnt how to take a disciplined and rigorous approach to defining business requirements. It developed a set of practices and processes to identify requirements in order to develop business and IT solutions. It taught me how to draw out information and requirements from key business stakeholders.
I wanted to gain a deeper understanding of business analysis strategy and application. I explored a range of strategic analysis and performance management techniques and learnt how to apply these within a defined framework.
