Using technology to solve
an immediate, pressing problem is relatively easy. Designing and implementing
a robust architecture that serves the immediate needs to the enterprise
and is consistent with the long-term strategic vision of the organization
is a bit more difficult. Enterprise Architecture (EA) is the practice
of applying a comprehensive and rigorous method for describing, defining,
designing, and ultimately deploying a framework that addresses business
architecture, performance management, organizational structure, and
process architecture.
Our EA curriculum explores the fundamentals, popular frameworks such as Zachman, The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF), Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DoDAF), Ministry of Defense Architecture Framework (MODAF), and TRAK, and aims to provide a broad awareness for the implications of EA and how to best support its adoption through changes to people, processes, and technology. |

WA1609 Enterprise Architecture Governance |
||
| Coming Soon |
This two-day workshop explores EA and the importance of implementing governance around such a monumental initiative. The adoption of a rigorous process for describing the current and future states of an enterprise’s maturity as well as defining a progressive roadmap should not be done in an ad-hoc fashion. This course will equip managers, architects, and team leads with a clear understanding of the challenges and risks associated with EA adoption as well as key strategies to mitigate these risks. Significant attention will also be given to the proper way to engender organizational change, champion the EA initiative, and best practices around managing enterprise architecture, business processes, and ensuring alignment with strategic objectives. EA can be adopted incrementally, contractually managed by policies and SLAs, and matured over time alongside the natural evolution of the enterprise. The key to this is governance. More Info |

WA1811 Introduction to Solution and Software Architecture |
||
| This course introduces the students to the fundamentals of Solution and Software Architecture. Within the broader strategic vision that Enterprise Architecture (EA) provides, there is a need to provide structure and guidance around the more tactical solution architecture capabilities that are developed to ensure they are consistent with the broader EA strategy. Within the context of each solution stack, there is additionally a need to properly craft software solutions so that they are in compliance with and help to enable the vision of the larger solution architecture. This course provides the critical linkage between Enterprise, Solution, and Software Architectures. More Info |

WA1917 Soft Skills for Information Architecture |
||
| coming soon |
The soft skills course consists of 1-day of lecture and discussion followed by a 1-day workshop in which the trainee will attempt to solve a problem within a simulated project. In the workshop portion of the course, each trainee selects (or is assigned) a problem to solve that is part of a case study. The architect must put together a strategy for solving the problem and addressing the concerns of all the identified stakeholders within the case study. At the conclusion of the workshop, each trainee will present their problem and the approach they intend to take. Discussion between the mentor and the trainees will then be used as a way to further explore each scenario and the relative merits of the approaches taken by the trainees. |
