to Toronto! Salary ranges across the

A Few Other Findings
The marketplace is still confused about the role of the Business Analysis Professional Postings include IIBA BA plus financial BA
Tend to look for Subject Matter Experts or project management knowledge
Don’t need any other project team member because the BA can do it all – project manage, develop, test, design
On the other hand, industry salary surveys or job postings segment the role into systems analyst, business systems analyst, etc.
Companies still uncertain about the value of the BA resource – they are uncertain what the market rate is for qualified BAs

Fundamentals
Most job postings focus on 5/6 KN plus other stuff – testing, PM, SME, development
EA – a lot of folks do it but most organizations don’t hire for it

Conclusions
Remember – you are not in it for the money… But if you were – and you were considering moving to the US – or
lived there already Working in the Mid-Atlantic (NJ, DC, MD, CT) seems to be the best
optionsOr if you don’t like the East coast
OK, IL, OR or CA are other options But if Canada is your home – or have decided to locate based on
your experiences at this conference You can locate almost anywhere and be similarly compensated
Calgary offers the best salaries but you may have to live in a stable
Or the Yukon, if you like the Great Outdoors!
