*Mark Jenkins is **Presenting*

*"**Filling The Blank Page**"*

Mark your calendars for this informative meeting and learn what to do in
this scenario:

You arrive at a meeting and, as you are being introduced as the business
analyst (BA), the meeting leader relinquishes the lead to you for the
purpose of gathering or documenting the requirements.

What you need to do to eliminate the Blank Page Syndrome (BPS).

1. Understand the need or goal of a project, so that connections to a
solution, conflict guidance, and scope control are improved.
2. Understand the basic flow of how a process or system works, to have a
context and framework within which to better understand, direct, and
document a project.
3. Estimation of time is only accurate if you divide a project into
small chunks of effort and then add them together.

Combining these three points into a cohesive strategy and framework, the
Business Analyst can add much more value to a project as well as see their
career extend into the Enterprise Analysis arena.

The venue is still to be determined but you can Register here

*BABOK Guide Agile Extension Overview at February Meeting*
The Agile Extension to the BABOK� Guide will be highlighted in this
month's BABOK overview before the main speaker. The guide addresses agile
development practices that have emerged since 2009. An interactive session
will illustrate one of the following topics:

- The importance of business analysis practices in an agile context.
- How business analysis is performed in agile lifecycles.
- Key principles that should guide business analysis practice in agile
environments.
- How agile practices modify business analysis tasks, and existing
techniques that are useful in an agile context.
- Information on new techniques and additional information on existing
techniques.

Send your request for which topic you would like to hear about to
profdev@NewJersey.theiiba.org.

The Agile Extension was developed as a collaborative effort between the Agile
Alliance and IIBA�. IIBA and the Agile Alliance are seeking feedback from
the agile and business analysis communities on its content, and invite all
members of those communities to submit that feedback before January 31,
2012. *
