Description

This CBAP exam preparation and certification course builds upon our previous 1-day IIBA CCBA Certification course. Designed as a focused 1-day session, it aims to enhance participants’ test-taking strategies and provide effective shortcuts. The course includes simulated case study questions and thorough review of answers, integrating the knowledge areas and techniques outlined in the BABOK® Guide version 3.

Training Objectives

• Answer case study questions to pass the IIBA® CBAP® exam
• Combine BABOK® Guide underlying facts
• knowledge areas
• and tasks
• Develop case study exam test-taking strategies and shortcuts
• Decompose complex case study questions to determine answers
