EXIN BCS Business Analysis Foundation 3 Days (21 Hours) / Exam included

The development of IT was the impetus for creating information systems to improve business operations and management decision making. But with the growth of information systems, it soon became clear that business users did not adequately understand the technical limitations of programmers, nor would programmers and other IT personnel immediately understand business needs. This led to the development of the business analyst function that would act as the coordinator between the business users and the IT staff.
