I I have dedicated June to finally clear some business analyst certifications I wanted to do for a year. Why BA? Well, being a good business analyst will help me (and you) to become a better developer and also product owner, since both professions heavily rely on BA skills. And yet not many developers nor product owners pursue them. I searched for the top BA certifications and I found IIBA . This Canadian non profit company is on the very top and I like their offerings.

I always suggest to my clients to use the native APEX components as they are if they can. This way, you safe even more time and the outputs across applications will be consistent. The more time your developers save on mundane jobs, the mor
