Covering Business, IT, and Data, The Open Group Architecture Framework ticks all the right boxes on any modern enterprise list. And the value of a TOGAF® certification certainly jumps to the eye, with a median UK salary of £89,000 for a certified professional.
What is TOGAF®?
The Open Group is globally renowned for their innovative standards around the use of open-source software.
Achieving a TOGAF® certification has proven essential for businesses to remain current in open-source standards. TOGAF® is now used by 80% of global companies, including Phillips, Fujitsu and IBM – asserting their authority as a trusted source of education.
The TOGAF® certification portfolio encompasses learning paths and certifications for Bodies of Knowledge based on both the TOGAF® Standard, Version 9.2 and the TOGAF® Standard, 10th Edition.
New learning paths introduced to support the TOGAF® Standard, 10th Edition include direct paths from TOGAF® 9 Foundation and upwards, and recognition of TOGAF® 9 certification with the bridge path.

Before you enter the enterprise architecture elite, you’ll need to pass two standard TOGAF® Enterprise Architecture exams:
