The BA ecosystem embraces different disciplines, insights and perspectives. To remain sustainable and competitive in today’s marketplace, business analysis will continue to grow and evolve as part of the BA ecosystem. Titles and roles will change and the BA network will become even more dynamic through new collaborative alliances and initiatives to further advance the BA community.

 

Today’s BA role is transforming; in this role, you may specialize in Agile, Waterfall, Requirements Engineering, Business Architecture, Information Technology, Business Intelligence, Scrum, or many others. To continue to build awareness and recognition with employers about the role of a BA and the value of industry recognized standards and certification, we have to tell our BA story in a compelling way, a way that everyone understands our message. While you may not have “BA” in your title, if the work you do in your role is business analysis focused, than you are a BA.
