Course Overview

This programme has recently been revised and enhanced to take account of new developments in the field. It takes due account of the BABOK® Guide (the Business Analysis Body Of Knowledge), in particular there is new coverage of the Business Analysis Core Concept Model (BACCM), an analysis tool to design and build transformation solutions through multiple iterations with all stakeholders.

The Diploma begins at a higher level, considering why there is a need for Business Analysis and Transformation projects in the modern business world.  It addresses the characteristics of a business analysis and transformation leader, giving students a chance to self-assess their own personas.  Students get hands-on with business modelling software, as well as opportunities to assess why and where business transformation projects can be challenging, including stakeholder involvement and impact assessment. The specific opportunities and challenges of technology-driven business transformation are addressed, allowing students to explore the innovative transformations possible in this regard.

Assessment

To be awarded a business analyst certification, students will be asked to produce an individual report on a given business analysis and transformation case scenario.  For example, this could be a CRM system to better deliver customer service.  The assessment requires the student to detail and document the steps in their proposed process, using appropriate tools and techniques. 

What is a Professional Diploma?

An IBAT Professional Diploma is a focused, short- duration practical course that consolidates, upskills and/or reskills learners in a professional area. It is a stand-alone qualification that does not lead to an award on the National Framework of Qualifications (NFQ).
