The Graduate Certificate in Business Analysis is a course designed for existing professionals who have a background working in IT, and wish to upskill in business analysis. If you are transitioning from a non-IT background, the Graduate Diploma in Information Technology (Business Analysis) will equip you with foundational IT skills, as well as opening a pathway for you to specialise in business analysis.
You will gain the specialist skills you need to shine a spotlight on business inefficiencies, and use your existing ICT expertise to propose innovative solutions that optimise business performance and efficiency.
At a time when digital technologies are becoming increasingly prevalent in the workplace, analysts with both business acumen and comprehensive understanding of business ICT systems are a huge asset to any organisation.
A proficient business analyst will be able to use business-centric ICT methodologies to analyse and refine business processes and work practices.
