In PMI-PBA Application - Project Experience Summary

Sat Jul 30, 2016 7:40 pm

Hi Seema,

In PMI-PBA Application - under Project Experience Summary, what information should be added here.

Should it be skills, project details, or tasks performed or anything else.
Can this section have similar tasks performed as added in BA experience summary for the same project in Project experience summary section?

It will be helpful if you can also provide the sample content so that i can comprehend further in my project context. Thanks.

The format of description is:

• A brief, one-sentence objective:
• Your role and responsibilities
• Deliverables summarized by process areas (Needs Assessment, Planning, Analysis, Traceability & Monitoring, and Evaluation) – abbreviations are acceptable – NA, PL, AN, TM, and EV)
• A brief, one-sentence outcome
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sample Project Description:

Project Objective:Develop web based application to automate much of report creation process for NA users.

My Responsibilities

NA: Anchored high level scope statements; Identified stakeholders and their needs;

PL: Prepared and published how requirements will be analysed and managed.

AN: Elicitate requirements by conducting interviews and workshop; Prepared BRD and FRD ; Validate

Requirements ; Obtain sign-off

TM: Maintained requirement traceability matrix; Shared project performance reports;

EV: Perform Acceptance testing; Gap analysis

Seema,

Is it mandatory to use acronyms of 5 Business Analysis Domain areas while listing task description in BA Experience as well as Project Experience?

It is recommended not mandatory. Your description should be logically arranged and clearly shows which activities belongs to which domain.

Hello Seema,

I'd like to question more on the inital question. As there are 5 domains categorized in BA, whilst i've been involving in many projects so that, the repeated activities' description will be seen in each project.

I'd like to check whether it makes sense and fine to proceed like this?

Thanks in advance for your support.

Yes, Daravuth. It can happen. But at the same time, each project is unique, there will be undoubtedly many differences in terms of tools and techniques and your involvement level.


Please show some variations. It is not good to have exactly same description in projects.
