Enterprise Architecture (EA): 757 - Enterprise Architecture (EA) Boot Camp

2008-01-08T02:41:21+00:00

Enterprise Architecture (EA) is more than the collection of the constituent architectures (Business, Application, Technology, and Information). It is a conceptual tool that assists organizations with the understanding
of their own structure and the way they work. It provides a map of the enterprise and is a route planner for business and technology change.

The interrelationships among these architectures, and their joint properties, are essential to the Enterprise Architecture. That is to say, these architectures should not be approached in isolation. Together, they are intended to address important Enterprise-wide concerns, such as:

Meeting stakeholder needs
Aligning IT with the business
Seamless integration and data sharing
Security and dependability
Data integrity, consistency
Reducing duplication
Utilizing Enterprise Architecture as a blueprint for current and desired capabilities and facilities gap analysis
Utilizing EA as a tool for strategic, acquisition, and capital investment planning

The Enterprise Architecture (EA) Bootcamp will focus on the essential elements required for developing results-driven EA programs that are designed to meet your requirements. It clearly explains enterprise architecture’s vital role in enabling—or constraining—the execution of business strategy. The boot camp provides clear frameworks, thoughtful case examples, and a proven-effective structured process for designing and implementing effective enterprise architectures.

Our experienced instructors work with you, tailoring the Boot Camp content to your needs. We can even conduct Boot Camp onsite at your business! Using real-life examples and interactive exercises, we teach practical ways to maintain your valuable customer base, win repeat business, and measure your organization's ability to meet customer expectations.

TOGAF Certification: 9022 - TOGAF Boot Camp

2007-09-10T04:19:16+00:00

TOGAF is an architectural framework - The Open Group Architectural Framework. The key to TOGAF is a reliable, proven method - the TOGAF Architecture Development Method (ADM) - for developing an IT architecture that meets the needs of your business.

It is a set of methods, processes, reference models, standards, techniques and tools for developing a broad range of different IT architectures. It enables IT organizations to design, evaluate, and build the right architecture for their enterprise, and reduces the costs of planning, designing, and implementing architectures based on open systems solutions.

The TOGAF boot camp leads to TOGAF Certification.

Objectives:

Our TOGAF certification boot camp will enable Enterprise and IT architects, designers and managers to achieve TOGAF CERTIFICATION (the certification fee is included in the price.(A $300.00 value)
After completing this program, attendees will be able to:

Understand Enterprise Architecture and managing its lifecycle successfully
Explore Enterprise Architecture with business requirements, architectural and solution building blocks, principles and patterns
Understand TOGAF and its components
Design and implement Business, Data, Applications and Technology Architectures using TOGAF
Describe Architecture Views, Viewpoints and Business Scenarios for Requirements Engineering and Management
Define the Enterprise Continuum including the Foundation, Common Systems, Solutions and Industry architectures
Create workable Architecture Governance
Ensure continuing alignment of the Enterprise Architecture with the business as it evolves
Using TOGAF to develop and populate other Architectural Frameworks such as the Zachman, NGOSS and other industry Frameworks.
Compare TOGAF with Zachman Framework (ZF), EAP, RUP/EUP, IEEE 1471, DoDAF, MODAF, NAF, AGATE, and FEAF
