Business
Analysis Essentials Training UK - course outline
The Business Analysis training course is designed to be both practical
and participative. A theoretical background is provided but the emphasis
of the course is on a realistic case study, based on a genuine consultancy
assignment, on which the participants work. An overall structure is
offered that includes an explanation and application of a range of
business analysis skills, including a practical approach to business
improvement.
During the Business Analysis training course, the participants work
through a typical business analysis assignment, from the initial analysis
of
the business to establish the ‘problem’, to the identification
and evaluation of possible solutions.
