Our exam simulations take into account not only the distribution of question in each knowledge area, but also the type of question that you could potential come across in the exam.

We pride ourselves in not only helping professionals pass the CBAP® or CCBA® exam, but actually learning the standard of business analysis as set forth by the International Institute of Business Analysis® (IIBA®). Our Exam Simulation bank contains questions in each section of the Business Analysis Body of Knowledge® (BABOK® 2.0). We assess your knowledge of the structure of the BABOK®, its content and the relationship between each section.

We believe that with a thorough assessment, one can be very well prepared to take the CBAP® or CCBA® and master the BABOK content. Focusing only on the potentially "right" questions would not help anyone attain the knowledge needed to master the content of the BABOK® and may not ensure that they pass the CBAP® or CCBA® exam.

We believe in providing you with the necessary information needed to be successful on your journey. Whether you want to learn about the standards of business analysis or you want to pass the CBAP® or CCBA®, our approach will ensure that you get there.

Our program is geared towards professionals who want to master the BABOK® and also increase the chance of passing the CBAP® or CCBA® exam.

Take a peek at some of the questions by enrolling in the Sample Exam Simulation.

You will be notified within 24 hours as soon as your enrollment is completed in My E-learning and you have access to the Exam Simulation. To gain access immediately after payment, contact us.

As outlined by IIBA, "the Certification of Competency in Business Analysis™ (CCBA™) designation allows the business analyst practitioner to demonstrate their skills and their ability to take on greater responsibility.

With the CBAP® designation you can gain greater recognition from your employer, enhance your income potential, and distinguish yourself as an elite member of the BA community."
