What is TOGAF®?

As the name suggests, TOGAF® is an Enterprise Architecture Framework – a series of methods, guidelines and tools for designing, implementing and maintaining an Enterprise Architecture. The TOGAF® framework was created by The Open Group, a global consortium of 700+ organisations whose objective is to advance business through the establishment of technology standards.

What is the TOGAF® ADM?

The Architecture Development Method (ADM) sits at the core of the method. It is the blueprint for developing and building an enterprise architecture. These are the key areas covered by the framework:

• Business: an organisation’ governance, processes, and strategy;
• Data Architecture: physical and logical data (and data management) assets;
• Application Architecture: planning individual applications’ deployment, internal (within the business) and external (other applications) relationships.
• Technology Architecture: hardware and software that support business, data, and application services, including IT infrastructure, middleware, networks, communications, standards, etc.

In addition to the ADM, this ever-evolving methodology includes tools, guidelines, standards and can integrate with other frameworks.

What is the latest version of TOGAF®?

The latest version of TOGAF is TOGAF® Enterprise Architecture which is based upon The TOGAF Standard – 10th Edition.

How do I become certified?

In order to become certified, you will need to pass the two standard TOGAF® Enterprise Architecture Exams: Part 1 (Foundation) and Part 2 (Practitioner). These exams are challenging and it’s essential to keep up-to-date with the study material. Our TOGAF certification training course is designed to take you through both levels and the exam in just 3 days.

If a candidate has achieved certification for TOGAF® Enterprise Architecture Foundation or passed the Part 1 section of the Combined Part 1 and Part 2 examination, then they need only take the TOGAF Enterprise Architecture Part 2 examination.

Candidates who have achieved the TOGAF 9 Certified qualification can achieve certification via the bridge learning path.

To attend this course, you need to have achieved the TOGAF 9 qualification.

Delegates will be provided with The TOGAF ® Standard 10th Edition Pocketbook as part of this course and before attending, we ask all delegates to download (for free) the full TOGAF specification: The TOGAF® Standard, 10th Edition (opengroup.org).
