@Joe, thanks for showing us the books you will be using for the course and thanks for joining our LinkedIn group. You may want to bring up your list of books there.

@Dalton, thanks for joining our LinkedIn group.

@Shohei, @Michael, you can see that there has been diminishing activity here and there are only 19 members. If you are interested in Business Analysis, please consider joining our IIBA Hawaii Chapter group on LinkedIn, where there are 78 members.

Aloha,

Jim

Hello all! My name is Michael Cardenas, I'm a student in the HPU system analysis course. I've also been working in the IT industry for over 12 years in many capacities and have some experience as a business analyst. I look forward to connecting with other business analysts here in Hawaii.

Hi people interested in business analysis.

My name is Shohei Sasahara, a Japanese senior student at Hawaii Pacific University. I am currently taking System Analysis course from Sam Joseph and willing to connect, discuss, and learn a lot in this group. 

Mahalo,

Sho

Hi Jim, at the moment I'm coming more from the software engineering and agile development side of things.  The three main textbooks at the moment are:

1) Engineering Long Lasting Software: http://beta.saasbook.info/

2) Code Complete: http://www.stevemcconnell.com/cc.htm

3) System Analysis and Design: http://www.amazon.com/Systems-Analysis-Design-Alan-Dennis/dp/111803...

I see the IIBA membership costs a little over $100 a year, so I'm tempted to maybe read the BABOK text first :-)  Thanks for the tip about the breakfast roundtables.  Actually I teach remotely from London in the UK, so perhaps I should look for a local IIBA chapter, but perhaps my Hawaiian students will be interested :-)

CHEERS> SAM

Sam, how much will you use the BABOK (iiba.org) in your course? IIBA regularly emails tips if you would consider a membership.

You may also find useful the discussions in the IIBA group on LinkedIn.

Also, our breakfast roundtables are a good place to chat (hawaii.iiba.org).

Hiya, I'm teaching a systems analysis course at Hawaii Pacific University.  What do you think are the top tips for up and coming systems analysts?
