The Corporate Business Alliance has published its twelve discipline standards as typeset editions, available to download from the new Publications library. Each edition sets out the discipline's domains, their weighting and the learning objectives a competent practitioner meets, together with the requirements of the level at which it is certified and a citation for use in other documents.
The library also carries four practice notes — longer guidance on applying the standards to a specific task, one in each field — and is joined by four further resources:
- Practitioner toolkits: eight working templates, two in each field, from a driver-based rolling forecast to an AI system inventory.
- The glossary: 240 defined terms across finance, accounting, management and technology, each cross-referenced to related terms.
- Self-assessment: a structured assessment against every learning objective in a standard, showing strengths and gaps domain by domain.
- Your credential and its badge: how a holder may display a CBA credential, the details for a professional profile, and an email signature that carries the badge.
All of it is free to use and open without an account.
