Course Description

This 5-day course developed exclusively by Interface Technical Training teaches the strategic and tactical roles of the Business Analysts and provides interactive coverage of the knowledge and skills necessary to master business analysis work. The most powerful approach to business evolution is the integration of Business Analysis and Project Management. During a project, business analysts report to the project manager in order to facilitate requirements gathering and analysis, communications, and stakeholder relationship management.
