TOGAF® Enterprise Architecture Course
Introduction to the TOGAF® Standard
Developed over nearly 30 years, the TOGAF® Standard provides an extensive framework for managing enterprise architecture. It offers proven methodologies and concepts for planning, implementing, and managing enterprise, business, data, IT, and solution architectures.
The standard consists of the TOGAF® Fundamental Content, covering essential methods and concepts such as the Architecture Development Method (ADM) and the Architecture Repository. Additionally, the TOGAF® Series Guides offer in-depth insights on topics like Agile methods, business capabilities, value streams, master data management, and security architecture.
The latest TOGAF® Standard, Version 10, is an essential tool for architecture professionals worldwide. TOGAF® Certification is widely recognized across industries as a benchmark of expertise. Learn more about the TOGAF® Standard from The Open Group or access the digital edition here.
Preparation for the TOGAF® Enterprise Architecture Certification, Version 10
Architecting Digital Transformation
Digitization is "architecture" - the complex interplay between business, data, applications and digital technologies. How is this interaction systematically described, developed, implemented and operated?
With our new Open Group accredited TOGAF® Enterprise Architecture courses, based on the TOGAF 10 framework, we offer the methodological support to systematically lead digitization projects to success.
The training provides intensive preparation for the TOGAF® EA Foundation, TOGAF® EA Practitioner TOGAF® and EA Leader certification. The certification exam can be taken within one year after the training at an exam center in Zurich, Bern or other cities, as well as remotely from home. The TOGAF certificate is valid indefinitely.
