Enterprise Architecture Training

This course provides information on basic Enterprise Architect (EA) operations applicable to all user disciplines.Common EA activities will be exercised by participants to create a project and model elements. The focus is on providing a working knowledge of the tool using it as a means of communication with stakeholders. Each discussion is followed by a set of hands-on exercises using the selected version and edition of EA.

This course explores the advanced features of Enterprise Architect. Building on the Enterprise Architect Introductory and Intermediate courses, the EA Advanced course is a mix of lecture, discussion, and lab work that teaches participants how to create customized solutions for projects and enterprises. At the conclusion of the training participants will be prepared to customize EA to fit their unique project needs to enhance team productivity. The case study used in the training can be adapted to an organization's needs - e.g. solution architecture, software engineering, systems engineering, business process or analysis.

Building on the Enterprise Architect Introductory course, the EA Intermediate course is a mix of lecture, discussion, and lab work that teaches participants how to use some of the advanced features of EA, including some of the value-added diagrams and elements that go beyond the basic capabilities in ArchiMate. The case study that was started in the Introductory course will be used as the starting point for this course.

This course lays the foundation of the core EA concepts, using TOGAF as the common vocabulary for enterprise architecture. The course then focuses on practical skills to perform the foundational activities of EA: Developing a vision; establishing an architecture baseline; developing a target business architecture, target data architecture, target application architecture, and target technology architecture. It provides guidance on establishing an EA program and EA governance. The course includes an extensive set of examples, templates, and industry references for further learning. The course includes hands-on labs for catalogs, matrices, and diagrams for all four domains.

This course is a subset of WA2322 targeted for EA stakeholders involved with enterprise architecture, yet not responsible for producing architecture artifacts. The course will cover the same concepts. It will focus on understanding architecture activities and artifacts, instead of developing architecture artifacts.

This course is for organizations that have or desired to establish an enterprise architecture function. This course describes enterprise architecture, solution architecture, and the relationship between them.

This course introduces EA, key frameworks, models and approaches, EA practice and governance, as well as provides a realistic look at the EA value proposition. This seminar will provide decision makers with the essential understanding of Enterprise Architecture and where to start when putting EA into action in your organization.

This course explores the use of Sparx Enterprise Architect (EA) to create models relevant to business analysts and architects. You will gain sufficient knowledge start using the language and the tool to improve your productivity while developing higher quality work products. Attendees will be able to read and understand the UML models being developed and start using the UML as a visual design tool. Wherever possible the course uses student company process and project information for examples and exercises to make the material as relevant as possible.
