Program details
Overview
The Business Analysis Certificate is a part-time online program of nine courses endorsed by the International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA). It covers business analysis planning, requirements management, process analysis and organizational change management, with courses delivered as two- to three-day live online intensive sessions. The program is aimed at aspiring and mid-career business analysts and can count toward professional certification and some graduate business credentials.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission follows SFU Continuing Studies' standard certificate requirements rather than a programme-specific academic prerequisite. Applicants need Grade 12 or its equivalent; mature students who do not meet this standard may instead qualify with at least five years of appropriate work experience. The programme's stated English Language Recommendation is an IELTS Academic overall band score of 6.5, set on SFU Continuing Studies' policies page. There is no formal application deadline: applicants may register for individual courses first and apply to the certificate at any time, and a non-refundable $99 program application fee applies when the formal application is submitted.
