The role of Business Analyst has evolved and developed beyond analyzing, documenting, and eliciting software requirements. With an industry growth expectancy of 14%, Business Analysts are now taking prominent roles across organizations to identify opportunities, conduct gap analysis and feasibility studies, and drive business solutions within their organizations.

Whether you are new to business analysis or interested in earning your Certified Business Analysis Professionals (CBAP) certification from the International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA), New Horizons can help you acquire the skills you need.

When an information technology project fails, it is often due to poor communications during the requirements gathering process, not a lack of technical acumen.

  • 66% of software projects aren't expected to finish on time or on budget
  • Completed projects typically operate at only 52% of the proposed functionality
  • 56% of project defects originate in the requirements phase of the project

Improving communication with stakeholders, project teams and developers allows for:

  • Executing better software development and other projects
