I would like to become a Business Analyst

I would like to become a business analyst in the software industry. May I know what is the minimum qualification which I would like to have?

The minimum qualification you require is B.Tech or MBA. It would be good if either you are MCA or MBA in IT management. IF u r B.Tech then it would be more preferable to pursue for MBA course with some experiance. As no software company prefer a fresher for the post of Business Analyst.

Ms Sarika, I have just completed MBA(fulltime) in IT MGMT and am also a BE(IT). I also have a 1.6 years exp in n/w troubleshooting and impart training in datawarehouse. My MBA projects have given me a good enough knowledge as to what a technical BA does. Plz suggest as to how should I approach for a career in BA.

Thnx in advance

Hello Anand,

IIBA survey shows that certification has a very strong impact on salary. There is an approximate 10 percent increase in salary for business analysts who have achieved the Certified Business Analysis Professional. I would recommend you to get certified as [B]business analyst certification[/B] can improve overall performance, remove uncertainty and widen market opportunities and potentially higher income for being formally recognized as an experienced BA professional.
