An intensive course covering all aspects of the Business Analyst role - from requirements gathering to testing. All major techniques - both Structured and Object-Oriented (OO) - are addressed in this course. Each trainee receives a hard copy of all course material as well as a Job Aids booklet, containing useful templates, examples, guidelines and glossary for use back on the job. Most large companies and organizations that rely heavily on software in business operations, employ Business Analysts to communicate business needs to software developers. When analysts do not do their job effectively, the result is incomplete or incorrect requirements - leading causes of spiralling development costs and project delays.
