I have had trainings in Business Analysis in the past and I must this one stands out. The short concise videos were put spot on in driving the main message and highlighting the important concepts every Business Analyst needs ,this in turn made the training less bulky and boring . The templates attached after each module have been very beneficial to me too. I'll definitely recommend this course to anyone looking to up their game as a seasoned BA.
