TOGAF ® Enterprise Architecture Foundation & Practitioner - Online Classroom (exam included)

TOGAF® Enterprise Architecture Foundation & Practitioner - Online Classroom (exam included)

The TOGAF EA (Enterprise Architecture) Foundation and Practitioner combined training is a comprehensive 4-day program that gives individuals a solid understanding of the TOGAF framework and its application in enterprise architecture.

TOGAF Enterprise Architecture Foundation and Practitioner is based on the TOGAF standard, 10th edition.

TOGAF® EA Foundation and Practitioner

In combined training, both Foundation and Practitioner level content is integrated into one program. This means participants can cover all the required material in one consolidated course, eliminating the need for separate training sessions for each level. This streamlined approach allows participants to learn the basic concepts and immediately build on them with advanced topics, resulting in a more efficient learning experience.

Taking the Foundation level before the Practitioner level is a must, as it provides the fundamental knowledge needed to understand the TOGAF framework. By combining the two levels, participants can seamlessly move from the basic concepts to the more advanced topics without the need for additional enrollment or wait times. This eliminates time spent scheduling and completing separate courses.

The TOGAF Enterprise Architecture Foundation certification confirms that a person has the fundamental knowledge and understanding of Enterprise Architecture using the TOGAF methodology so that he or she can participate in an architecture project or work with its results.

By earning the TOGAF Enterprise Architecture Practitioner certification, a person can demonstrate their proficiency in analyzing and applying the TOGAF standard to develop, maintain and use an Enterprise Architecture, validating their knowledge, understanding and skills in this area.
