Agile Business Analysis (AgileBA®) Practitioner

Agile Business Analysis (AgileBA) Practitioner is an instructor-led training course designed for professionals who already possess AgileBA Foundation knowledge and want to apply agile business analysis techniques confidently in real-world project and product delivery environments. Based on the AgileBA Handbook, the DSDM Agile Project Framework, and the guidance developed by the Agile Business Consortium and APMG International, this course focuses on the practical application of agile business analysis principles, enabling participants to support successful change initiatives, product development, and business transformation programmes.

As organisations increasingly adopt agile ways of working, business analysts are expected to move beyond traditional documentation-focused approaches and become active facilitators of value delivery. AgileBA Practitioner helps participants develop the practical skills required to align business objectives with agile delivery practices while ensuring stakeholder needs, governance requirements, and business outcomes remain central throughout the project lifecycle.

Participants learn how to apply AgileBA concepts in realistic project scenarios, analysing business needs, managing requirements, supporting decision-making, and facilitating collaboration across multidisciplinary teams. Through practical exercises, case studies, and scenario-based discussions, learners gain experience applying AgileBA techniques in environments where priorities evolve, stakeholder expectations shift, and value delivery must remain continuous.

A major focus of the course is agile requirements engineering. Participants learn how to discover, analyse, prioritise, model, and validate requirements using techniques suited to iterative and incremental delivery. The course explores practical tools such as MoSCoW prioritisation, story mapping, and timeboxing, helping teams focus on delivering the highest-value outcomes while maintaining flexibility and responsiveness to change.

The training also covers stakeholder engagement and facilitation skills that are critical in agile environments. Learners develop practical techniques for running workshops, building consensus, gathering feedback, and encouraging collaboration among business representatives, product teams, and delivery stakeholders. These skills help ensure that solutions remain aligned with organisational objectives and customer needs throughout delivery.

Solution development and modelling techniques are integrated throughout the curriculum. Participants learn how to evaluate options, develop prototypes, analyse business processes, and communicate requirements effectively using agile-friendly approaches. The course demonstrates how business analysts contribute to reducing uncertainty and improving decision-making by providing clear and actionable business insights.

Governance and planning considerations are also explored within the context of the DSDM Agile Project Framework. Participants learn how AgileBA supports project planning, estimation, benefits evaluation, risk management, and governance activities while maintaining agility and responsiveness. These capabilities help organisations balance flexibility with accountability and control.

Additional topics include iterative delivery planning, business case alignment, value assessment, prioritisation frameworks, benefits realisation, and collaboration across AgileBA and DSDM roles. Participants gain a deeper understanding of how business analysis contributes to successful agile outcomes throughout the entire delivery lifecycle.

Aligned with the official AgileBA Practitioner syllabus and examination objectives, the course provides practical, exam-focused knowledge while emphasising workplace application. Participants leave with techniques and frameworks that can be applied immediately within agile projects, product teams, digital transformation initiatives, and business change programmes.

This course is ideal for Business Analysts, Senior Business Analysts, Product Owners, Product Managers, Project Managers, Change Managers, Consultants, Requirements Specialists, Agile Practitioners, and professionals responsible for supporting agile delivery and business transformation initiatives. Training is available across Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, and Canberra, as well as through live online delivery throughout Australia. A Certificate of Attendance is included upon completion.
