THE FUNDAMENTALS OF BUSINESS ANALYSIS FOR NEW BUSINESS ANALYSTS
Most new business analysts are graduates or come from operational roles – they need business analyst courses which give them a solid grounding in the fundamentals of business analysis and the confidence to use what they’ve learnt.
But on the job training is hard when you “don’t know what you don’t know” – and managers can’t afford to have them out of the office for extended periods.
IRM offers a proven solution to these problems using just two courses, both endorsed by the IIBA®:
