Enterprise Architecture Administrator

Course outline

3 days

Duration

3 days

Introduction

This Enterprise Architecture Basic Concepts course provides an overview of the theory and practice of Enterprise Architecture (EA), its roots in business and technology analysis and planning, the value and risk of implementing EA in an organization, the scope of EA programs, EA documentation methods, and the six basic elements that comprise a complete approach to practicing EA. Leading edge concepts of integrating strategic, business, and technology planning through holistic EA approaches are presented during the course.

This course is taught over 2 days, with each day primarily consisting of lectures and a case study that runs throughout the curriculum. Examples of current EA practices and methods are also provided, including the foundational work of Architecture Framework (TOGAF), the EA3 'Cube' Framework, and the Federal EA Framework (FEA). Those who complete the course will obtain overall knowledge on Enterprise Architecture Basic Concepts, Applied Concepts, and Advanced Concepts.
