Chapter Meetings Build BA Careers

Expect the unexpected. When you come to a NJ IIBA Chapter meeting, you never know what nuggets you might pick up from a presentation, or whom you might meet. Or, as in the case of Robert Cooper , what prize you might win.

At the April 2012 meeting, Robert was the lucky winner of a certificate to attend PMCentersUSA virtual training.

"Winning this training comes at a good time for me," Robert says. "With my contract's end in sight, I have been thinking about what skills I want  to re-enforce or expand upon. My background is a mix of technical skills (programming, especially SQL) and BA skills. I like doing both so it is always a balancing act to keep current in both skill sets." 

Robert goes on to say, "So with this prize I am trying to decide if I want to work on softer skills (Elicitation or Communication) or more technical skills (Requirement Analysis or Business Rules development)."

The speaker that evening was Joe Lukas from PMCentersUSA. Joe demonstrated how BAs can become sensitive to personality styles of other team members which helps them communicate more effectively. The raffle prize was awarded to one person at the meeting. It is worth up to $795 and gives Robert 1 year to select the right course at the right time.
