Instructor Details

Meetul Patel

With 19+ years of experience as a Business Analyst, I have realized that the real Business Analyst role is completely different than what one would learn reading books and articles. Hence, I believe in a completely practical approach when I train so that my students can experience a day of a Business Analyst on the job. I have had the pleasure of working with amazing professionals in Finance, Insurance, eCommerce, Education, Mortgage and Digital Marketing Industries. I have learnt all the industry best practices and the goal is to deliver them to my students. Moreover, I have been working on Agile Scrum for more than 8 years and I am a certified Scrum Master.

I understood each and every concepts very clearly because of the realistic examples used in the video and the interaction with the students also made me to think for the answers and i got some of them right.

By Marcela Arellano on 7/31/2026

Very good course. Easy to understand for beginners and contains information that helps to improve if you already have experience as Business Analyst. I liked that the instructor provides examples and summarizes the information at the end to connect all individual lessons

By Sagar on 7/17/2026

Amazingly taught different concepts for someone who is aspiring to be an Business Analyst. I l really liked the approach because it's very hand on and concepts explained clearly with examples. Two things - Content is little outdated and second does not cover the exhaustive things you need to learn for becoming BA and one have to do additional research/study to master other BA concepts.

By Ruchita Gundeti on 7/11/2026

In depth knowledge shared by Mr. Meetul Patel, which I didn’t know even after watching several YouTube videos and doing a MSc in Business Analytics. This course is great for beginners and all the jargons were well highlighted and explained in the course. I just wish there were a few activities and task to make it interactive and as a learner it would benefit us in having hands on practical knowledge.

By Chris Dacoros-King on 6/4/2026

This information was presented in a clear manner and I really like the presenter's ability to share knowledge. It appears that this class shares actionable information, especially with the walkthroughs/demonstrations.

By Adam Opiatowski on 5/4/2026

Sporo wiedzy, ale sposób przekazania mógł być lepszy. Kurs nie był przygotowany w profesjonalnych warunkach tj. zdaje się, że częściowo jest to nagranie spotkań on-line przez co jakość audio momentami pozostawia wiele do życzenia.

By Bobby Samuel on 3/4/2026

I signed up for this course and forgot about it. After completing another BA bootcamp online, I came back to this course to brush up but was totally surprised by the value I got from this course . I am totally thankful to Meetul Patel for sharing his wisdom and experience. I have learnt much more from this course then from my bootcamp for which I paid a lot of money. This course is a really top notch.

By Tolulope Akinyemi on 2/24/2026

it is one of the best material I have ever seen on Business Analysis. The Trainer broke it down in such a way that even a small child will understand. I have recommended the course to lot of aspiring BAs

By Lina Avizone on 1/21/2026

It was a good course, covers topics from A to Z and gives you an understanding of what a BA job entails. However, sound quality towards the end of the course was quite poor and sometimes it was difficult to understand what was said.

By Devender Kumar on 12/31/2025

Excellent course! Business Analyst concepts are explained in very simple and clear language. The course focuses on understanding the fundamentals and practical thinking rather than just tools. It really helped me build strong clarity in analysis. Highly recommended
