Join us for a night of fun and learning! We will play a few rounds of a game based on the popular game show Family Feud with questions related to the practical application of the BABOK (Business Analysis Body Of Knowledge). Attendees can opt to play the game or cheer on from the audience.

This interactive game night will be based on the once popular TV gameshow Family Feud. You can either play as a contestant or join the audience. Small prizes will be awarded to the contestants on the winning team(s).

Questions for this game have been prepared based on the BABOK (Business Analysis Body Of Knowledge) but they are not just multiple choice, memory recall type questions. The questions were asked of and have been answered by a panel of CBAP certified BAs and friends in the Calgary area via a blind survey. Their answers are based on their real-life experiences in applying the techniques found in the BABOK.
 
This game is a trial run for a proposed similar event we want to hold in Ottawa just prior to the Grey Cup and in celebration of Canada’s 150th Birthday. Teams will be invited from across Canada. Come help us iron out the details for this game. The questions will be new in Ottawa and those surveyed for answers will come from all over Canada or even globally.
 
If you cannot attend the event but you want to help us out and be part of the panel that is surveyed, please send an email to president@calgary.iiba.org expressing your interest.
