The Agile Business Analysis (AgileBA) Handbook offers useful, practical and comprehensive guidance on the role of the Business Analyst working in an agile way (the agile BA).

It also aims to give context to the Business Analyst role beyond the individual project, in relation to organisational mission and strategy, and to give additional depth and guidance for the Business Analyst role.

The guidance is presented within the framework of DSDM, an approach which defines the role of the project-based Business Analyst, in relation to business, development and testing roles at all levels. However, the guidance is wider than this, with many generic and popular Agile techniques also included, where useful and appropriate to the Business Analyst.

The handbook is the primary reference material for those undertaking AgileBA study, training and certification.

AgileBA (Agile Business Analysis) Certification

I really enjoyed the practical exercise component as it allowed me to immediately try the new skills that I had just learnt, and to practise these in an environment that was supportive. I have already applied many of my recently learnt skills in my role as a junior analyst on our project.
