FAST TRACK to Business Analysis Skills

According to the 70-20-10 model of learning,

10% of learning comes from courses and books,

20% from feedback and from working examples,

70% from doing it and solving problems as they arise.

Our FAST TRACK program is a blended learning approach to quickly develop business analysis skills. We designed it specifically around the 70-20-10 model of learning.

How It Works

Preparing for the Class

To optimize the time together with the instructor, we teach the basic concepts of a topic using self-paced, online courses, video shorts, and/or books. At each student’s own pace, they get comfortable with basic concepts and think about how these might apply in their environment. This enables each student to bring questions to the classroom.

During the Class

During class, we deepen the acquired knowledge. Our instructors use real-life examples, exercises and case studies to kick-start problem-solving abilities. Because the students learned many of the basics before class, the instructor can focus more on examples, exercises, and new ideas or techniques that the students are struggling with.

This addresses the first 30% of learning.

What about the whopping 70% left over?

It ain’t over when it’s over

“…, having completed the massive 2-month business analysis training marathon for 120 participants, each attending 5 days. I’m grateful that everything went well, and that Dan was able to deliver all classes… [the participants] talked about the well-structured, well-thought-through training contents. We find that your course was not one of those mass products quickly put together, but it was like an old tree grown with authenticity and experience. For those keen to learn, there was a lot to discover. They returned to their jobs with courage to try new techniques, and daring to ask questions where needed.”

“… This business analysis training was extremely helpful. It tied in excellently with what I’ve acquired so far from the IIBA® and the BABOK®. Although I wouldn’t consider myself a dedicated Business Analyst or even particularly advanced in my experience, the course was still well suited for my understanding. It was a pleasant surprise for me that this business analysis training provided me with useful tools and information in problem areas for me that I did not realize were either the cause or effect of my requirements management difficulties. I’m definitely looking forward to applying some of these concepts as well as looking forward to my next course.”

What Is Your Preferred Flavor?

 User Stories, Features, Requirements, and/or Use Cases?

Whether defined business needs are in the form of user stories, features, requirements, or use cases in your organization, depends largely on the software development approach that your company uses.

User stories are more commonly used within lean or agile methods, while requirements documents are more commonly associated with the traditional waterfall methodology.

Use Cases and User Stories promote more discussion and collaboration than requirements documents. They are rapidly  becoming the preferred approach for defining IT business needs in today’s organization.
