Course Method

The AgileBA Foundation & Practitioner course adopts a teaching method that is both engaging and effective, combining theoretical insights with practical application of AgileBA principles. Here’s a detailed breakdown:

• Balanced Learning: Recognizing the importance of both theory and practice, the course is designed to strike a balance between learning the fundamental principles and methodologies of AgileBA and gaining practical experience. Participants are introduced to key concepts and principles, then given opportunities to apply this knowledge through hands-on exercises that simulate real-world scenarios. This approach ensures a deeper understanding and retention of course content, while also enabling participants to see how these concepts apply in a real-world context.
• Case Studies and Caselets: To provide a practical perspective and demonstrate how AgileBA principles translate into action across various industries, the course utilizes a variety of case studies and caselets. These scenarios illustrate how the theoretical aspects of AgileBA are applied in different business contexts, fostering a more profound understanding of the AgileBA framework and its practical applications.
• Practical Exercises: The course firmly believes in “learning by doing”. Hence, it incorporates numerous practical exercises that allow participants to actively engage with the concepts and principles they’ve learned. Activities range from group tasks and problem-solving exercises to mock projects, which are designed to cement understanding and demonstrate the applicability of AgileBA principles in managing real-world business challenges.
• Interactive Classroom Activities: To ensure an active and engaging learning environment, a range of classroom activities is woven into the course curriculum. These activities may include group discussions, quizzes, role-play exercises, and interactive games that are related to AgileBA. These engaging activities help maintain participant interest and ensure the learning experience remains interactive and stimulating.
• Experiential Learning: The course also emphasizes experiential learning, which is based on the principle that participants learn best from their experiences or by doing. Through facilitated discussions, reflective practices, and feedback sessions, participants gain insights into their understanding and application of the AgileBA concepts, encouraging a deep, holistic understanding of the subject matter.
• High-Quality Study Materials: To support participants’ learning journey, the course offers world-class study materials that are frequently updated to reflect the latest developments in Agile project management. These materials are crafted not only to support learning during the course but also to serve as a valuable resource for future reference in the workplace.
• Course Duration and Structure: The AgileBA Foundation & Practitioner course is an intensive, non-residential program that lasts for four days. The course is meticulously structured to provide ample time for learning, practice, revision, and preparation for the Agile Project Management Practitioner exam, which is held at the end of the second day.

This comprehensive teaching method is designed to foster active learning and engage participants in their journey towards becoming competent Agile Business Analysts. It equips them with the knowledge they need to pass their AgileBA exams and the skills and confidence to apply AgileBA principles in their daily work.
