What are the levels of TOGAF® Certification?

The TOGAF® certification is conducted in two levels. Level 1 is known as TOGAF® 9 Foundation, and Level 2 is known as TOGAF® 9 Certified. Level 1 covers terminology, structure and basic concepts of TOGAF® 9, as well as core principles of enterprise architecture. Level 2 builds on this functional knowledge using practical scenarios, based more on practical application and analysis. TOGAF® 9 Training Course: Combined (Level 1 & 2) includes TOGAF® Exam Vouchers!

If I have a TOGAF® 9 certification, how do I update my TOGAF 9 certification?

The TOGAF® Standard, Version 9, is an update to the previous version providing improved guidance, correcting errors, improving the document structure, and removing obsolete content. If you already have TOGAF® 9 certification to the earlier conformance requirements then you remain certified.

What if I fail the TOGAF®Exam?

If you fail the examination, you need to wait at least one month to retake the exam.

How many questions are there in the TOGAF® certification exam?

TOGAF® part 1 Foundation (Duration 60 minutes)
40 multiple choice questions (Closed Book)
Pass mark – 55%

TOGAF® part 2 Certification (Duration 90 minutes)

TOGAF® 9 Combined Part 1 and 2 – This is a combined TOGAF® 9 Part 1 and Part 2 examination for candidates who want to achieve Level 2 certification directly in a single examination. It consists of two sections, with pass marks as per the TOGAF® 9 Part 1 and 2 examinations described above. Each section must be passed in order to obtain an overall pass mark. If you fail a section then no certification is awarded, however you only need retake the Examination(s) corresponding to the failed section(s).

Can I take TOGAF® training online?

Yes! We understand life can be busy! We offer all of our courses as live TOGAF® online training courses as well as instructor led classroom training.

What is the use of TOGAF® certification?

For efficient utilization of the TOGAF® framework, knowing how to beneficially implement TOGAF® will prove profitable for organizations that wish to adopt this framework in its functioning, and TOGAF® certified architects will continue to remain in high demand.

TOGAF® is used to help organizations design an IT infrastructure that is adapted to meet their requirements. This is where trained TOGAF® professionals come in; they communicate with various department heads and help design and implement an IT strategy quickly and effectively.

What is the difference between accredited and non-accredited training?

Accredited training course providers are subject to an assessment both of the course and also their personnel and organization.

What are my options if I am TOGAF® 9 Certified?

The upgrade path has now expired. Individuals who have qualified as TOGAF®8 Certified can obtain TOGAF® 9 certification as detailed above.

What is the difference between the Combined Part 1 and Part 2 Examination and taking the exams separately?

The Combined Part 1 and Part 2 examination is designed for candidates who want to go to TOGAF® 9 Certified without the intermediate step of TOGAF® 9 Foundation, and who want to take both papers in one examination session. If you take the exams separately and only pass Part 1 you will be awarded TOGAF® 9 Foundation. If you take the Combined Exam, and fail a section, you will need to retake the failed section(s) before certification will be awarded.

How long does the TOGAF® certification last?

TOGAF® 9 certification for individuals has no renewal. In some cases, for classes of certification dependent on an annual Commercial TOGAF® license then the initial certification will be synchronized with the license renewal date.

I’m also glad to share that I passed both levels of the TOGAF certification exam on 4/30. Thanks to the Web Age training. It definitely helped me prepare for the exam.
I had taken a TOGAF® course about 10 years ago, and practiced architecture with a TOGAF® framework for several years, but it has been 5-6 years in between, so this course was a great refresher.
The instructor did a great job of presenting material that is heavily abstract and somewhat theoretical in a way that makes sense and is understandable. Will recommend this class to others in our organization.
The instructor’s style of teaching is outstanding. His energy keeps everyone engaged and he does a really good job of siting examples to help understand the topics. Additionally, the instructor frequently does check points to see if the pace and method for teaching need to be adjusted for the group.
The instructor did a great job with the material, sprinkling in real life experiences to augment the course material
Material was fully covered, with additional explanation as appropriate. Good amount of time with sample test questions also provided a good basis for success with the upcoming cert exams.

The TOGAF Certification Exam:

togaf trainingDuring this TOGAF training course, you will receive a voucher allowing you to schedule the TOGAF 9.2 Level 1 and Level 2 certification exam. The TOGAF®  Certification consists of two exams which must be passed in order to become TOGAF certified.

The TOGAF 9.2 Level 1 certification exam is a 60-minute closed book exam. The TOGAF Level 2 certification exam is a 90-minute open book exam. You must pass the exams to achieve certification.

The level one exam tests your basic knowledge of TOGAF® and is heavily focused on ensuring you understand the TOGAF® terminology and the basic purpose of the TOGAF® components.

The level two exam is much different from the level one exam. It has 8 multiple choice questions. Each question contains a scenario which is about a page in length followed by a question and the multiple choice answers.

Upon passing both exams, you will become TOGAF® certified.

Web Age’s TOGAF training courses are designed not just to prepare students for the TOGAF® certification exams (which are administered by a third party), but also to give students the practical tools for performing architectural work.

TOGAF® 9 Training Course: Combined (Level 1 & 2) includes TOGAF  Exam Vouchers!

How should I prepare for the TOGAF Certification Exam?

Your preparation requirements for passing the TOGAF Certification exam will depend on your current role and your understanding of IT enterprise architecture. However, structured TOGAF Training like the TOGAF Certification Training courses we offer Web Age will arm you with the right information to assure positive results.
