Certification of Capability in Business Analysis (CCBA) — Question 354

When a business analyst prepares for elicitation, he must define the scope of the selected elicitation technique, notify the stakeholders of the elicitation plan and technique to be used, and what other preparation activity?

Answer options

• A. Schedule all needed resources.
• B. Create an elicitation plan.
• C. Define the solution.
• D. Perform stakeholder analysis.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as defining the solution is crucial to ensure that the elicitation process aligns with the overall objectives of the project. The other options, while important, do not specifically focus on the preparation required for effective elicitation. Scheduling resources and conducting stakeholder analysis are part of the broader project management, and creating an elicitation plan is itself a part of the preparation, not an additional step.
