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.
