Common Questions About the IIBA CCBA Exam

What is the IIBA Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) exam all about?

The CCBA exam is the official IIBA exam behind the Certification of Capability in Business Analysis certification, validating the skills measured by the IIBA Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) credential. It sits at the Mid-level level of the IIBA certification program. It also connects to CCBA, so the knowledge you build here carries over to those tracks as well.

How many questions are on the CCBA exam, and how much time do I get?

The CCBA exam contains 130 questions to be completed within 180 minutes. Before exam day, divide the available time by the question count to work out a comfortable per-question pace, and mark any item that eats into it so you can return later instead of getting stuck. Timed sessions in the Getcertkey test engines make that pacing automatic — run at least two full-length mock exams under the clock so time pressure never becomes the reason you drop points.
