I chose Adaptive for my course provider required for my CBAP certificate. Adaptive have great trainers who help make sense of the BABOK guide. Adaptive also have A LOT of resources online (question bank, audio guides, study material) so there’s plenty to keep you busy while you study.

The Adaptive practice questions are an excellent resource to prepare for the CBAP exam. I completed all their simulation tests twice and reviewed the Questions explanations to be sure my understanding was correct, and concepts were fresh in my mind before the exam. If you want to pass the first time, practice is the answer.

Thank you Adaptive! With the support of Adaptive instructors LN Mishra, Lora McCoy, Peter Johnson, Adaptive support team and Adaptive online learning tools and test preparation system, I was able to pass the test from the first attempt.

- Clearing CBAP is quite hard as there are no direct questions
- All the questions require deeper understanding of concepts, tasks and techniques, which comes only with the guidance, and mentoring of experienced coaches and study materials.
- Time management remains a big challenge till date and the exam prep tricks and tips from our coaches helps our participants to sail through this challenge.

You may take the exam up to 3 times within the 1-year application expiry period. There is no wait time between exam sittings. If you take the exam all 3 times and do not pass, you must wait until your application expires before you can reapply
There is no official data from IIBA to answer this question as IIBA does not disclose this information. However, from our experience and the experience of our past CBAP participants, we know that it is safe to assume that the CBAP exam passing score is more than 70%. Hence, we suggest targeting 85%+ in the CBAP mock tests in order to be successful in the CBAP final exam.
Read on to move ahead in your BA career.
Yes, you have been a Business Analyst, done and lived the analyst role, been through all this, now it doesnt seem so interesting anymore.
Is this something you have been as a Senior BA and BA Managers been through?

Here is a very broad guideline for the career progression of a BA.
Four common career paths BAs can pursue are:
1. Business analysis
2. Product management
3. Project management
4. Consulting
However having said that it depends on the persons interest, domain/technical knowledge, interest to learn new concepts and risk-taking ability which determines largely the career progress.
If you are risk-taking and open to learn new concepts/domain you can change your domain and move to a new field and establish yourself to be a good player in the field. This gives you good exposure and makes your career prospects broader. That makes you a good candidate for a senior executive position.
If you love what you are good at and aim to become an expert in the same without changing gears then you can master your domain including getting into other areas in the same domain. This can include having a good hold on the tools and products prevalent in the domain. This can make you a great specialist and unique in the field, which is invaluable for your career.
You can make yourself a great consultant in a particular field and can think of working with multiple clients to give them a part of your time and expert guidance. In return, this gives you the flexibility and the rich experience of working with multiple clients.
There is no better time than now to start something good.
