Enterprise Architect Certification

[Former Member]

We want to send some peoplefrom our organisation for Enterprise Architect course and CErtification. We do not want to send for vendor specific certification.We are lookign for generic certification which is recognized by everyone.

Can you suggest some good generic Enterprise ARchitect certification.

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

Go for Togaf 9 certification, this comes into 2 level.

Level -1 : foundation.

Level -2: Practioner.

either you can step by step or in single go.

5 days course will cost you approx. 2000 Euro (check with training provider as cost may vary). Level-1 can be done by self study and foundation guide is also available and will cost you around 23 Euro.

Togaf is very generic and focus on procedure rather than deliverables whereas Zachman focussed on deliverables, so most of the organization use comibation of both to design their own EA practice/framework.

Since SAP EAF is based on Togaf so it is worth if you are into SAP services as well.

1) The Open Group have a certification for TOGAF (The Open Group Architecture Framework)

http://www.opengroup.org/togaf9/cert/

2) There are also two certifications from Zachman International

http://www.zachmaninternational.com

Note: Expensive as you must attend classes

They are both probably as vendor-neutral as they come.

TOGAF is what SAP have based their Architecture Framework on. They have extended it.
