Business Analyst training

    Hey,

    I am currently working on an idea that i hope to turn into a business. I am at early stages at the moment and really need some formal BA training as I know that will help.
    I have searched non stop for a course of this nature to do either online or in Dublin but no joy. If anyone has any ideas I would be really grateful.
    I know there is a Diploma in BA run by the NCI but this is very difficult to do considering its only during the day. As this is my own idea I cannot ask for time of work to do it.

    Any help would be great or if no course exists, suggested reading.
    Cheers

    Would a PLC course or diploma possibly fit the bill? I guess some of them might be at more flexible hours. There is also the open university - i don't know whether you can take their courses if you're based in Ireland.

    Hey,

    Thanks for the input. I would be hoping to find something geared towards BA work that would be evening or online based. I couldn't afford to take any time of work.
    I haven't really found a course relevant to BA work at all that I could take. I have contacted OU and was looking at their MBA in Technology. I am going to start a Msc next year but think their MBA is quite expensive.

    I think the next best option was the Msc in Management of Operations in Oscail but this does not start until next Sept.

    What I am really looking for is something like the ISEB Diploma in Business Analysis, which i can do before starting my Msc. But there doesn't seem to be anything like that on offer over the web or in dublin.
