Questions

Which certifications are available?

CBAP® is available now. ECBA™, CCBA®, and PMI-PBA® are visible as Coming soon and cannot be purchased yet.

What does a paid plan include?

Access for the period you purchase to the complete CBAP® learning environment: 1,000+ questions, 180+ case studies, eligibility and readiness journeys, personalized and paced practice, full exam simulations, English explanations, saved notes and highlighting, question review, readiness guidance, detailed performance diagnostics, goals, trends, and study planning. Only the 1-month plan renews, and only once.

Do the one-, three-, and six-month plans include different features?

No. Every duration includes the same core CBAP® simulator and learning environment. Choose a duration according to the preparation time you need; feature access does not decrease with a shorter plan.

Does access renew automatically?

Only the 1-month plan, and only once. The initial 1-month purchase renews automatically one time, adding one further month, and then automatic renewal ends permanently — it is not an ongoing subscription. We email you a week before that single charge with its date and exact amount, and you can decline it beforehand. The 3-month and 6-month plans never renew automatically. Any access beyond this is an extension you choose and pay for.

Are official certification or exam fees included?

No. Prices shown are only for Lanalyste simulator access and Lanalyste learning content. Application, membership, exam, rescheduling, official-material, course, and other certifying-organization fees are outside the purchase.

What language are the questions and answer choices written in?

CBAP® questions and answer choices remain in English. Every paid plan includes English explanations. The optional French add-on provides a detailed analytical explanation in French while keeping relevant English terminology visible.

What is the French explanation add-on?

A detailed French analysis after each question explaining why the correct option is strongest, why every incorrect option is less appropriate, and how the reasoning relates to BABOK® Guide concepts and terminology. Questions and choices remain in English; relevant English terms appear alongside French terminology. It is bought separately in blocks of 10 consecutive days at C$7 · US$5 · €5 a block, in any number from one to six. You choose when to activate a block; coverage then runs continuously, cannot be paused, never renews, and cannot run past the main access you have paid for.

Is Lanalyste affiliated with IIBA® or another certifying organization?

No. Lanalyste is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, accredited by, or otherwise associated with IIBA® or any other certifying organization.

Does Lanalyste issue certifications or guarantee success?

No. Lanalyste provides independent preparation; it does not issue official certifications, determine eligibility, or guarantee a passing result or score.

Are these official exam questions?

No. Questions, case studies, explanations, and analytics are independently created learning content. They are not actual questions taken from an official exam.

What informs Lanalyste’s case studies and learning content?

The original case studies, questions, explanations, and learning structure are informed by more than 10 years of business analysis experience. They are independently created by Lanalyste and are not official examination content.

Can I share my account with another person?

No. Access is personal and intended for one person. Sharing credentials or allowing another person to use the account is not permitted.

Can I copy or share questions and explanations?

No. Access is personal. Lanalyste exclusively owns its learning content, subject to any third-party rights identified in the terms. Copying, publishing, distributing, reselling, scraping, or using it to build another product is prohibited and may lead to suspension and legal action.

How does Lanalyste measure readiness?

The overview combines six primary signals: knowledge accuracy, exam-content coverage, completed questions, exam performance, accurate pace, and exam endurance. Full Performance explains them through knowledge areas, tasks, techniques, question archetypes, reliability, goals, and trends. The result guides study; it is not an official score, prediction, or guarantee.

Can I take notes or highlight text?

Yes. During practice you can save private notes and highlight selected case-study or question text in yellow, green, blue, or pink. Your annotations remain available when you review the question.

Can I try it before choosing a plan?

Yes. The guided demo begins with five dedicated CBAP®-style questions and continues through the question experience, explanations, review, report, and dashboard so you can understand the complete workflow. Demo content is separate from the paid question bank.
