AGILE ANALYSIS CERTIFICATION (AAC)
The Agile Analysis Certification (AAC) course is a globally recognized professional program designed to validate the ability to apply business analysis practices effectively in Agile environments. The AAC certification is administered by the International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA) and is ideal for professionals working in Agile, Scrum, Kanban, and hybrid delivery contexts. It focuses on how business analysis supports continuous discovery, collaboration, and value delivery rather than traditional document-heavy approaches. This course aligns with the Agile Extension to the BABOK Guide and emphasizes Agile mindset, adaptive analysis techniques, stakeholder collaboration, and value-driven outcomes. It prepares participants to successfully pass the AAC certification examination and to operate confidently as Agile Business Analysts or Product-focused practitioners.
