Course Overview
This course elaborates on the IT Enterprise Architecture (ICEA) course, focussing on the practical application of the knowledge to a case study. By means of a series of sessions and exercises, delegates are shown how to create a set of IT Architectural deliverables (views) in the following areas:
- Architectural pre-cursors
- Business, Data, Application and Infrastructure architecture
- Governance of architectural activity
The primary aims of this and the related certificate are to give Enterprise and Solution Architects a broad framework that covers the range of architecture work that precedes and steers system development, and to focus attention on areas where the architect is responsible for effective design and risk management. Delegates will also practice application of relevant process and techniques through a case study, adopting aspects of Zachman and TOGAF to achieve this.
This training may be available onsite; please contact us if you are interested.
Audience
This course and qualification is aimed at practising Architects or students, with a recommended six or more years experience of IS/IT work including some architecture definition.
