    What Is the Business Analysis Foundation and Practitioner Certification?UntitledYour Route from Beginner to Practitioner

    The Business Analysis Foundation and Practitioner (BA F&P) certification is a two-level, internationally recognised qualification that validates both foundational knowledge and applied skill in business analysis. Awarded by EXIN in partnership with BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT, it is aligned to the BCS Business Analysis Body of Knowledge and taught here as instructor-led Business Analysis Foundation and Practitioner training in Brazil. The programme takes you from core concepts, such as investigation techniques, requirements engineering, stakeholder management and business modelling, through to applying those techniques in realistic project scenarios. You sit two separate EXIN examinations: the Foundation exam, which tests comprehension across 14 topic areas, and the scenario-based Practitioner exam, which tests application across seven. Both are graded at a 65% pass mark and, once earned, are valid for life. Whether you are moving into business analysis from IT or project delivery, or formalising years of hands-on experience, this BCS-backed credential is valued by employers across Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Brazil's fast-growing fintech and IT sectors. Start your journey with Invensis Learning, an EXIN Accredited Training Provider.

    No. The programme starts from foundational concepts, so beginners can follow it, while the Practitioner level suits those ready to apply techniques. Hands-on case studies support learners at both levels.

    What learning materials are provided?

    You receive BCS-aligned courseware, industry case studies, and mock exams and practice questions for both the Foundation and Practitioner levels to build exam readiness.
