Home > EA or ArchiMate > EA for Architecture and Strategy

This course is for architects who are new to both Enterprise Architect and ArchiMate. It covers all of ArchiMate – business, application and technology layers as well as motivation, strategy, physical and implementation & migration elements. It allows delegates to create standard ArchiMate viewpoint diagrams within Enterprise Architect..

Duration:	5 days
Prerequisites:	No prior Enterprise Architect or ArchiMate experience is required. A background in enterprise architecture is helpful.
Equipment:		For on-site course delivery the customer should provide a suitable training room with a projector to connect to our trainer's laptop and a whiteboard or flipchart. All delegates require access to a PC or laptop running Enterprise Architect.
		For webinar training sessions delegates need access to a PC or laptop running Enterprise Architect with Internet connection and VoIP (a headset can be helpful for privacy in an office environment). A trial version of Enterprise Architect is fine for training and can be downloaded from Sparx Systems website: www.sparxsystems.com/products/ea/trial.html
Course Style:	30% theory, 70% practical. Each module is accompanied by paper and hands-on exercises to allow delegates to apply the theory and become confident using Enterprise Architect.
Delegate Handouts:	Each delegate receives a folder containing all the course slides and comprehensive theory notes which form excellent reference material. Folders also contain exercises and suggested solutions. Following successful completion of the course each delegate receives a certificate.

Module Key:	Teaches concepts and notation
	Teaches practical use of Enterprise Architect
