    Elisto has released a potentially controversial article “Wasting your time with a Business Analyst course?”, bringing some cause for concern, as the article may upset providers of traditional training courses.

    The 500 word article examines the high points and low points of Traditional Business Analyst training, in the pursuit of providing sensible pragmatic guidance based on the real world skills needed for junior Business Analysts, trainee Business Analysts, or aspiring Business Analysts. In an untypical manner though, a certain element of the article is set to spark discontent amongst traditional training providers:

    Most professional IT related courses are very woolly and focus on values and concepts, and not the hard skills required to make a real difference in the modern professional world.

    A spokesperson for Elisto, Jude, says “Of course Elisto never sets out to intentionally upset anybody. The aim of our articles is first and foremost to give a fair analysis of the subject so our readers so they can make their own minds up about the value of traditional training. It is critical, however, that we stay dedicated to our true voice.

    Although our “Wasting time with a Business Analyst course?” might unsettle providers of traditional training courses, our duty is to our readers. We believe it’s more important to clearly explain the often hidden disadvantages of standard courses, than to please everyone. Which is notoriously difficult to do.”

    Although there has been no backlash as of yet, the possibility exists as the article provides good articulation that expensive traditional courses do not provide real value to the trainee.

    Elisto has been a provider of in depth articles in the Agile Business Analyst training market for across the last year.

    Elisto has stated the future aims for the website are to help interested readers get into the technology sector by providing highly sought after, cutting edge digital and AI skills in agile business analysis and agile delivery management, that could lead to highly lucrative and rewarding careers. What Elisto teaches are actual tried and tested methods, that have used successfully for almost two decades. There is zero “academic” filler, but all real world techniques, ideal for the post graduate or apprentice looking to learn what they should be doing from day one!. So Elisto hopes any controversy will pass quickly and re-emphasizes no offence is or was intended.
