Why do we suggest this "TOGAF 9 Foundation Training" ? to you

TOGAF, The Open Group Architecture Framework, is a detailed method and a set of supporting tools for developing enterprise architecture. It describes the process for acceptance, production, use and maintenance of enterprise architectures. TOGAF is used worldwide by numerous architects to design, evaluate, and build the right architecture for their organization. TOGAF is an open standard, managed by The Open Group. According to TOGAF, enterprise architecture (EA) is "the fundamental organization of a system, embodied in its components, their relations between each other and the environment, and the guidelines and principles that govern the design". TOGAF assists in the integration and management of IT resources from a strategy and business driven point of view. During this workshop, TOGAF 9 is employed to explain the basic elements of enterprise architecture and to show how this framework can be used when documenting enterprise architecture.

This course is meant for those that wish to gain a firm knowledge of TOGAF 9, or for those that wish to apply TOGAF 9 to their daily work activities. It is well suited for those that wish to be TOGAF 9 certified. It is of interest to business-, enterprise- and IT-architects, as well as consultants. This course is a preparation for the TOGAF level 1 multiple-choice exam at one of the Prometric test centers. Please refer to the website of The Open Group for more information on TOGAF certification.

  • Insight into the relationship between TOGAF and ArchiMate

This workshop is organized in collaboration with BiZZdesign Belgium. The number of participants is limited to 16 for optimal interaction and a better learning experience.

Why you don’t want to miss this workshop on TOGAF 9:

TOGAF has become a de facto standard in enterprise architecture and the demand for TOGAF expertise has risen in recent years, which translates into a rising demand for TOGAF certification. Participants of this workshop get an overview of the TOGAF 9 concepts and techniques and are better prepared to participate in, and work with enterprise architecture projects which use TOGAF as an enterprise architecture process. As a result, the chances of success of an enterprise architecture program increase, better deliverables are obtained, better support of IT-resource planning and decision support is achieved and better communication is created with the stakeholders of the enterprise architecture program. Simply put, it increases the added value of enterprise architecture !

After attending this TOGAF 9 Foundation workshop, a participation certificate will be issued by I.T. Works and BiZZdesign. You will be prepared for the TOGAF 9 exam that can be taken at a Prometric center. It is also possible to join the TOGAF Practitioner course (level 2) which will prepare you for the "TOGAF 9 Certification Exam" at a Prometric certification center.
