Evolution of George Brown’s Business Analysis Program and IIBA’s Academic Program
The success of the full-time business analysis program over the years served as the catalyst to reset George Brown’s health informatics programs by incorporating foundations of business analysis. The full-time business analysis program evolved into becoming a prep course for the Entry Certificate in Business Analysis (IIBA-ECBA) exam. Upon completion of the course all students sit IIBA’s proctored exam to attain the ECBA certification. Through IIBA’s Academic Program George Brown offers their students IIBA membership which offers access to all member benefits and additionally access to the ECBA accelerator, an a 10-hour asynchronous learning module that will help prepare candidates to sit their ECBA examination.
