Become A High-Performing Business Analyst and Get on Track for Your CBAP Certification.
BAPC™ is a 10-week accelerated program designed to give you the business analysis skills you need to deliver high-quality digital products in enterprise environments.
You will also earn 40 PD/CDUs to help you qualify to take the CBAP certification exam or to help you renew your current CBAP certification.

INTEGRATED LEARNING
Using A Truly Holistic Approach
The core business analysis skillset is made up of a collection of analysis techniques that all work together seamlessly to help the analyst deliver a single cohesive vision of the future state solution.
Most training programs teach a disparate set of arbitrarily selected analysis techniques that fail to produce quality results.
Your process maps form the starting point for your requirements, and your requirements are elaborated through your specifications to support the needs of all your stakeholders.
This is holistic business analysis.
IN DEMAND SKILLS
Backed By Latest Industry Standards
The BAPC™ curriculum is fully aligned with the tools, techniques, and perspectives cataloged across the 6 areas of the BA Body of Knowledge from the IIBA. The successful completion of this course awards you 40 PD/CDU credits toward your CBAP certification/re-certification.
The BABOK V3 currently contains the most comprehensive catalog of the standard tools and techniques that business analysts can learn and deploy to help their companies overcome the business transformation challenges they experience.
This course will teach you how to operationalize the key elements of the BABOK V3.


LEARNING BY DOING
Using Enterprise Class Tools
Real-world challenges require real-world tools.
You will receive access to the industry-dominant enterprise-class tools that most organizations use in their day-to-day operations.
You will use these tools to, document your requirements (MS Word), build your visual models (MS Visio), construct your product backlog (MS Azure DevOps Boards), and centrally store/organize all your deliverables (MS SharePoint & Azure Boards).
What Our Students Are Saying
I came across the BA Blocks community and decided after a while to take Emal’s Business Requirements and Functional Specifications course. I am glad that I did.
The quality of Emal's teaching and his dedication to his students is amazing. By the end of the first day, I had actionable insights that I could take to the workplace. The depth of Emal’s experience and his obvious passion for teaching makes him a gifted teacher.
I really enjoyed this course and learned a huge amount about my profession. You should try it too.

Jeremie F.
Business Analyst, Australia
Already CBAP certified and having attended several professional development courses/programs, I was looking to upscale my existing business analysis skillset and knowledge to take me to the next level.
After wading through many options, I stumbled across BA Blocks, there was something different about it. Almost immediately what was different became glaringly obvious, this wasn’t just a business seeking to maximize profit, this was a passionate, highly skilled trainer and BA practitioner, who was a master at business analysis.
In addition to this and much to my surprise was also a caring, very ethical, and passionate mentor, who walked the walk right alongside his students helping each one to achieve success
I have taken almost all of his courses so far (the only restriction is time on my side), and I will everyone he offers.
There is no one on the market that can come close to offering what Emal offers his students.

Senior Manager, Business Analysis, Canada
I'm an experienced BA practitioner and joined BA Blocks to learn more about and connect with Emal.
I enrolled in the requirements and specifications course and can attest his knowledge, skillset, and practical experience is a gift to his students. His approach to teaching the core business analysis concepts and the fundamentals of the Enterprise Solution Delivery (design) Process is, bar none.
His teaching is practical and provides students the opportunity to understand the whole aspect of business analysis is greater than the sum of parts.
