Why this business analysis certification is your next, right step

Today's job market is becoming increasingly competitive, both within South Africa and globally, and business analysts are finding themselves under increasing pressure to distinguish themselves from their competition.

Johannesburg, 25 Feb 2021

As in many other disciplines, there is the opportunity to gain an internationally recognised and accredited qualification in the business analysis profession to set yourself apart and confirm your status as a leading and respected authority in the industry.

The BCS International Diploma in Business Analysis is a globally recognised qualification that proves you have the knowledge, skills and capabilities to be effective as a business analyst. Over 100 000 professionals worldwide have met the high standards set by BCS.

Once you've successfully gone through the process of obtaining this professional qualification, having the credentials at hand will give you an advantage over your peers without the qualification. As an accredited professional, you will have learnt a standardised set of generally accepted industry practices that will better equip you to make a meaningful difference in your career. And the expertise required for the certification ensures your salary potential is also higher.

To achieve this qualification, you must first pass four BCS certificate courses and then pass the diploma oral exam. For individuals considering pursuing this qualification, many people strongly recommend completing the training programme through Business Change Academy.

Zinhle Ndlovu, a business analyst with Dimension Data, says: "The training is practical, and I'm able to apply everything I've learnt in my work. I am not the same Zinhle that I was before starting this programme. Promotion loading..." Business Change Academy

This accreditation is a worthwhile pursuit for anyone practising business analysis, enterprise analysis, process analysis, systems analysis, requirements analysis or management, process improvement and business/IT consulting.

"Holding the International Diploma in Business Analysis proves that you can walk the talk regarding the value proposition of business analysis. It demonstrates that you're well-versed in good industry practices, and organisations can be assured that you can practically apply this practice in your work," explains Joe Newbert, CTO at Business Academy.
