Toronto, Ont. (March 16, 2011) -- International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA) is pleased to announce its São Paulo chapter in Brazil has released A Guide to the Business Analysis Body of Knowledge® (BABOK® Guide v2.0) in Portuguese.

Translation of the BABOK® Guide v2.0, the key reference guide for business analysts, in the common language spoken in Brazil will standardize terminology in this powerhouse BRIC country in South America.
IIBA members have free access to download BABOK® Guide 2.0 from the IIBA website http://iiba.info/MemberGuiaBABOK. Non-members can purchase a PDF in Portuguese from the same website for US$29.95 or can order the print version from Amazon. Highlights of the guide are also available at www.theiiba.org.br.
Suzandeise Thomé, president of the IIBA São Paulo Chapter, says, “More than a simple translation, this launch provides wide access to the Portuguese speaking market to what today can be considered the bible of business analysis."
Members of IIBA around the world completed almost three years of study and received over 5,000 comments from more than 1,500 subject-matter-experts prior to the release of the latest version of the guide in English last year. Brazil is the second country to translate BABOK® Guide v2.0; it is also available in Japanese.
Kevin Brennan, IIBA Vice President, Professional Development and Communities, says, "A huge thanks goes out to the São Paulo chapter’s team of volunteers for their dedication in pulling this major initiative together.” He adds, “We are very pleased to make the global standard for the business analysis profession widely accessible in Brazil and other Portuguese speaking nations."
