  Syllabus Information 

  Module 0: Welcome to TOGAF Enterprise Architecture: Foundation 

   
  In the initial module, an introduction is provided concerning the main features of the course, along with a comprehensive learning plan, the goals and objectives set forth, and its overall structure. Additionally, participants are given access to a course guide, a package containing various diagrams, a glossary, documents for further reading and links, and access to download necessary copies of framework publications. 

   

  Module 1: Concepts 

   
  The first chapter opens with an Executive Overview, which provides a broad outline regarding The Open Group's perception of Enterprise Architecture, addressing several basic inquiries such as the nature of an enterprise, the necessity of an Enterprise Architecture, and the reasons for employing the TOGAF Standard as a guiding framework for Enterprise Architecture. The subsequent chapter delves into the foundational concepts of the TOGAF Standard, including an introductory depiction of the Architecture Development Method (ADM), the Enterprise Continuum, Architecture Repository, Content Framework, Enterprise Metamodel, and Enterprise Capability. 

   

  Module 2: Introduction to the ADM 

   
  The initial chapter of this module elaborates on the elementary structure of the ADM along with various critical aspects. The following chapter shifts focus towards the governance and scoping pertaining to Enterprise Architecture. 

   

  Module 3: Phases of the ADM 

   
  This module provides an overview of the purpose and goals associated with each phase of the ADM, starting from the preliminary phase through to phases A-H. It includes explanations regarding Requirements Management and the role of architecture within an Agile Enterprise. 

   

  Module 4: Introduction to ADM techniques 

   
  In this module, an introduction is given to the supporting guidelines and techniques of the ADM. It outlines the purpose behind Architecture principles, the attributes of a sound Architecture Principle, and proceeds to discuss business scenarios, interoperability, the Business Transformation Readiness Assessment, and risk management strategies. 

   

  Module 5: Introduction to applying the ADM 

   
  This module starts by directing learners on where detailed guidance on applying the TOGAF Standard can be found. It discusses the application of iteration to the ADM, the Architecture Landscape, Architecture Partitioning, and the purposes of EA Capability, concluding with how the TOGAF Standard facilitates support for the digital enterprise. 

   

  Module 6: Introduction to Architecture Governance 

   
  An explanation is provided on the concept of Architecture Governance, initially focusing on its nature and characteristics. It also covers the role and responsibilities of an Architecture Board, alongside the functions of Architecture Contracts and Architecture Compliance. 

   

  Module 7: Architecture content 

   
  Focus in this module is placed on the content of Architecture — the outputs generated during the execution of the ADM. It starts by defining the key concepts of Architectural Artifacts, the essence of building blocks and their utilization in the ADM, and outlines the TOGAF Standard deliverables that are created and utilized across various ADM phases. 

   

  Module 8: The practice exams 

   
  This module contains two practice exams, one of which is provided by The Open Group, while the other has been developed by Good e-Learning. 

   

  Module 9: TOGAF Enterprise Architecture: Foundation wrap-up 

   
  The concluding module offers information regarding the procedure for booking the exam and details other courses that might be of interest.
