On the second Tuesday of every month, Laura has a webinar talking about the BA career. I’ve always wanted to participate but due to lack of time, it’s been a challenge. This month, however, I was able to join and thought the topic was very appropriate for this month as I am getting ready to send out Chapter's door prize gifts.

Typically, Laura answers questions regarding Business Analysts resume, how to move up the BA career ladder, what are managers looking for in a BA… etc And this month, along with answering those questions, she talked about the benefits of being involved in the IIBA® chapters. She told the story of a lady who provided her time to volunteer in the definition and documentation of a process for her local chapter. After working with her, Laura was able to recommend her for a job that she had heard of later on.

 

Laura pointed out that relating to one’s career, the benefits of getting involved in local chapters are ability to practice business analysis tasks and allow others to become aware of your skills. This could lead to securing your next job. [Register for her upcoming webinars]

From an education provider’s perspective, another benefit from joining a local chapter is the ability to in crease your knowledge of the business analysis practices. Because BAMentor offers many discounts and free gift prizes to members of local chapters, by becoming a member of local chapters, you have a chance at receiving scholarships to our courses, vouchers for exam simulations… etc. We also offer many discounts for chapters who partner with us. Some of those chapters are:
