FAQs
Explore how business analyst training can enhance your skills in analysis, data generation and exploration, process improvement, and decision-making for strategic business success.
What is business analysis?
A business analyst bridges the gap between business needs and technical solutions. Their primary role is to identify areas for improvement within an organisation and develop actionable solutions. To do this, they typically use data analysis tools and knowledge of the business to identify patterns of behaviour for both employees and customers, delivering analysis reports that recommend potential business improvements.
What career benefits can I expect?
By completing business analysis training, you’ll not only increase your technical capabilities and business acumen but also build a strong foundation for career advancement, making yourself more competitive, versatile, and impactful in the workplace. Business Analysts play a crucial role in decision-making, strategy, and performance optimisation within a wide range of sectors.
What is the difference between a business analyst and a data analyst?
A business analyst plays a more proactive role in decision-making, often shaping business strategy and providing solutions. They focus on how to implement changes based on business needs, whereas a data analyst is primarily concerned with analysing the “what” and “why” behind data trends. Business analysts are more likely to work closely with stakeholders to develop actionable business solutions. Their work is typically broader and more strategic.
