Business Analyst role is relevant for all types of IT projects including projects executed using Agile methodologies. The skills for an Agile Business Analyst includes user story development and mapping, backlog grooming, customer stakeholder interaction etc.

What is the difference between Agile Business Analyst and Product Owner?

A product owner is a defined role for SCRUM methodology only and is not valid for all the Agile methodologies. Agile business Analyst refers to the business analysis conducted in any software project following Agile methodologies not necessarily SCRUM.

But broadly speaking, product owners have a restricted role as compared to a typical business analyst.

It was a good experience learning from Techcanvass. The trainer had made the sessions quite interactive which helped and made learning fun.
