BA BoK Update
May 19, 2006 |
I expect an official announcement soon, but unofficially, I’m happy to say that there will be a new version of the Business Analysis Body of Knowledge in the very near future. There will be another update towards the end of the year.
Like 1.4, this will be a “snapshot” release that shows IIBA members where we are at the moment. We’ve been working with practitioner feedback from the very hardworking Review Committee, but not all of that feedback will have been incorporated into the next release by the time you see it. What will have changed is that there will be a lot less outline and a lot more content in the new version.
We’re also putting together a panel of experts to help us review the scope and eventually the content of the BoK. I’m hoping to announce the list of reviewers soon–but at the moment I can say that I’m really happy with some of the people who’ve generously volunteered to help us out. (Parenthetically, I’ve also learned that how well-known a person is has surprisingly unconnected to how easy it is to reach them).
