I am establishing a PMO and I have some BAs who need to get their CBAP and ECBA certificates. The IIBA website has a long list of providers for these courses and I would like to know if anyone has recommendations that I could use to narrow down that list. My PMs are getting their PMP certification thru the PMI self-directed online prep courses. I am ok with online, in-person, or a mix. We are based in Vancouver, Canada. Saving Changes...

Why not think about to get PMI´s business analysis certifications? Just to comment, I have both: IIBA´s CBAP and PMI´s PBA. For a chance of the destiny I was part of the group that created all related standards in both organizations. And if you ask me, taking the last version of BABOK, my recommendation is going for PMI´s standards just in case you and your group need to apply business analysis in practical way. Saving Changes...
Hi Sergio, I did consider the PMI BA cert, but I liked that the IIBA had an entry level cert (ECBA) as well as the senior level one (CBAP). I have some people from the business who will be transitioning into a junior BA role so the entry level ECBA seems ideal.
Rami, I will check out Watermark, thanks! Saving Changes...
