Business Analysis and Traceability of Requirement - May 20
Building on the previous session at the chapter meeting in October, Pierre Armand will review what traceability is and how it can be achieved using effective tools.
Put your business analysis skills to the test at BA Blitz 2025, a high-energy, full-day hackathon designed to tackle real-world challenges! In collaboration with ABLE Autism and Lambton College Ottawa, this event gives you the chance to work in teams, apply BA techniques, and develop solutions that support a local non-profit organization. Whether you're an experienced analyst or just starting out, this is an exciting opportunity to gain hands-on experience, earn professional development units, and make a meaningful impact.
Data flow diagrams, brainstorming, organization modeling, workshops, root cause analysis. Which are your go-to techniques for business analysis? In the May 2024 session, we will turn our focus on the list of Techniques, the tenth chapter of the BABOK®.
What makes great leaders and organizations stand out? In our next BA Book Club, we’ll dive into Start with Why by Simon Sinek—a powerful exploration of how starting with purpose can inspire others and drive meaningful action. Join us for an engaging conversation about the “Golden Circle” and how BAs can apply these ideas in their work.
