Certified International Business Course What is Certified International Business Course? The Certified International Business Analyst (CIBA) certification is ideal for those CMAs who desire to be an agent of change in a multinational corporation. An international business analyst will identify and define the solutions in a global context that will maximize the value delivered by an organization to its stakeholders. Business analysts work across all levels of an organization and country boundaries and may be involved in everything from defining strategy, to creating the enterprise architecture, to taking a leadership role by defining the goals and requirements for programs and projects or supporting continuous improvement in its technology and processes. CIBAs have the specialized knowledge to act as a guide and lead the business through unknown or unmapped territory, to get it to its desired destination. “The value of business analysis is in realization of benefits, avoidance of cost, identification of new opportunities, understanding of required capabilities and modelling the organization. These are areas well known to CMAs. As such, although this course is usually run over 2days, for CMAs it can be done in 5-hours. It is a great opportunity for CMAs to update their knowledge”. - Professor Janek Ratnatunga, CEO, CMA Australia. Where to get CIBA?
