AssistKD’s Passport scheme allows delegates to purchase 4 qualifying courses and accompanying certificate exams at a substantially discounted price to obtain the BCS International Diploma in Business Analysis. You can use our Passport Builder to tailor your programme to your exact specification.

To gain the Diploma in Business Analysis, candidates must pass four one-hour examinations on a number of business analysis topics, each of which leads to a certificate which has value in its own right. To convert their set of certificates into the Diploma, candidates then attend an interview with two BCS examiners to confirm their technical, business and interpersonal competencies. The structure of the diploma is as follows:

There are two core modules in the Diploma, which all candidates must attain. These modules may be gained in any order.

Candidates must choose one "knowledge-based" module and one "practitioner" module to complete their set of certificates. Which they choose will depend on their own background and preferences (business versus technical, for example), what their organisation requires and the nature of their current roles. Knowledge-based:
