IIBA Chapters
IIBA® Chapters advance the mission and
objectives of the organization by promoting professional standards and
practices at the local level. Ongoing professional development is a key
benefit of your IIBA® membership and is supported at the
chapter level through activities, meetings, and educational
programs.
Joining IIBA® shows your commitment to high
performance and excellence in the area of business analysis. When you join an
IIBA® chapter, you can get even more from your
IIBA® membership.
IIBA chapters are being formed in many cities in Canada, the U.S. and
around the world. We encourage our members to initiate chapters in their
areas to enable networking with fellow BAs from a wide variety of
organizations and industries, in a local, face-to-face setting.
Select a region from the Chapters menu at the left and then choose a
Chapter for more details about that specific Chapter.
For more information on starting an IIBA chapter in your area, refer to the Chapter Start Up on the chapter FAQ page.
Become an IIBA Chapter Sponsor
As a way to help launch new chapters,
IIBA® implemented a Premier Chapter Sponsorship program.
One organization is selected annually by the Chapter Board of Directors
as their sponsor. This sponsor provides funds and/or facilities for the
chapter, such as space and refreshments for meetings, administration
costs, etc. Each chapter signs an agreement with the Premier Sponsor
defining the sponsorship fees and responsibilities of the sponsor and
the chapter.
The sponsorship fee stays with the local IIBA chapter, helping them to
provide information and networking opportunities to business analysts in
the area. In return, the Premier Sponsor is listed on the
chapter’s web page with the company logo.
As an IIBA Chapter Sponsor, your organization will
have the following benefits:
- Community visibility as the IIBA Chapter Sponsor
- Exposure on the IIBA® website as the Chapter
Sponsor
- Recognition on marketing materials and newsletters provide by the
Chapter
- Recognition at the Chapter meetings
If you are interested in becoming an IIBA Chapter Sponsor, please contact
your local chapter representative.
IIBA Chapter Patron
If you are not able to provide full sponsorship for a chapter, you
may still help by being an IIBA Chapter Patron. Patrons provide individual
contributions, either monetary or in-kind, to defray specific expenses,
such as printing or advertising. In return, the Patron's company name
and logo will be identified on such donations.
To become an IIBA Chapter Patron, contact your local chapter
representative.
IIBA Chapter Webinars
The intention of the chapter webinar series is to build capacity for chapters in
all areas of chapter operations by bringing best practices and the learnings of
successful chapters to the rest of our chapter stakeholders.
