This Enterprise Architecture Foundation and Practitioner course is based on material from the updated TOGAF® Standard, 10th Edition. It covers all the Foundation and Practitioner (Parts 1 and 2) syllabus
The TOGAF® Enterprise Architecture Foundation part of the course explores the core concepts and principles of the TOGAF® standard, diving deep into the phases of the Architecture Development Method (ADM) which sits at the heart of the framework. Any individual or organisation with an aspiration to implement industry-leading Enterprise Architecture practices should have a solid understanding of the TOGAF standard.
The TOGAF® Enterprise Architecture Practitioner part of the course explores the core concepts and principles of the TOGAF® standard in detail. It also provides practitioners the opportunity to apply TOGAF® concepts to a range of Architecture problems.
This fully-accredited online course offers a range of self-paced micro-learning videos, formative quizzes and applied practice.
The practice exams and other training resources are designed to equip learners to pass the TOGAF® Enterprise Architecture Foundation and Practitioner exams on their first attempt – and feel confident in the practical application of their new knowledge.

Module 0: Welcome to TOGAF Enterprise Architecture Foundation
Module 0 introduces you to the course main features, learning plan, aims and objectives, and structure. It also offers a course guide, diagram packs, a further reading and links document and links to download essential copies of the framework publications.
Module 1: Concepts
Module 1 answers several fundamental questions, such as “What is an enterprise?”, “Why is an Enterprise Architecture needed?” and “Why use the TOGAF Standard as a framework for Enterprise Architecture?” The module also introduces the core concepts of the TOGAF Standard, including an initial outline of the Architecture Development Method (ADM), the Enterprise Continuum, Architecture Repository, Content Framework, Enterprise Metamodel and Enterprise Capability.
Module 2: Introduction to the ADM
Module two explains the basic structure of the ADM and explores the governance and scoping of Enterprise Architecture.
Module 3: Phases of the ADM
Module 3 outlines the purpose and objectives of each of the phases of the ADM: the Preliminary Phase and Phases A-H. It also explains Requirements Management and architecture in an Agile Enterprise.
Module 4: Introduction to ADM techniques
Module 4 introduces the ADM supporting guidelines and techniques. It outlines the purpose of Architecture Principles and what makes a good Architecture Principle. It goes on to explain business scenarios, interoperability, the Business Transformation Readiness Assessment and risk management.
Module 5: Introduction to applying the ADM
Module 5 explains where to find detailed guidance on applying the TOGAF Standard, how to apply iteration to the ADM, the Architecture Landscape, Architecture Partitioning and the purposes of EA Capability. The module concludes with an explanation of how the TOGAF Standard supports the digital enterprise.
Module 6: Introduction to Architecture Governance
Module 6 explains the concept of Architecture Governance, focusing first on its nature and characteristics. It then describes the role and responsibilities of an Architecture Board along with the role of Architecture Contracts and Architecture Compliance.
Module 7: Architecture content
Module 7 focuses on Architecture content — the outputs produced while executing the ADM. It begins by defining key concepts of Architectural Artifacts, what building blocks are and their use in the ADM. It then describes the TOGAF Standard deliverables created and consumed in different ADM phases.
Module 8: The practice exams
There are two practice exams. One has been provided by The Open Group. The other has been created by Good e-Learning.
Module 9: TOGAF Enterprise Architecture: Foundation wrap-up
Module 9 provides information on booking the exam and other courses of interest.
