Description

Demystifying the BABOK (Review Kickoff)

What is the BABOK all about? What does it say? How is it used? Who uses it and can it help me and my organization?

The first in this multi-session presentation series will start with an overview of the BABOK where Bob will break down the content providing insight into how it is used through real-life examples and how you might gain and apply its valuable knowledge. We will be guided through the BABOK by the engaging and interactive Bob Prentiss, CBAP with Watermark Learning.

The Business Analysis Body of Knowledge® (BABOK®) is the collection of knowledge within the profession of Business Analysis and reflects current generally accepted practices. As with other professions, the body of knowledge is defined and enhanced by the Business Analysis professionals who apply it in their daily work role. The BABOK® Guide describes Business Analysis areas of knowledge, their associated activities and the tasks and skills necessary to be effective in their execution. The BABOK® Guide is a reference for professional knowledge for Business Analysis and provides the basis for the Certified Business Analysis Professional™ (CBAP®) Certification.

COST: Free to chapter members*; $5 for non-members

LUNCH: Pizza, salad, and drinks provided free of charge
