Our Passion

Knotion is passionate about Enterprise Architecture and the necessity of our clients being able to adopt sound EA principles in order to guarantee their future sustainability and ease of change. We are heavily focused on continual research and development within the EA and SOA domain to give both our clients and trainees the best exposure to leading thinking within the space.

TOGAF™ 9 Certification Course

The Open Group® Architecture Framework (TOGAF™) is accepted as the de facto international certification for Architects at all levels. The Knotion TOGAF™ 9 course prepares delegates for certification against the current best practice as understood by Architects worldwide and documented under The Open Group’s Architecture Framework. The opportunity to obtain this certification is also included in the course. Our qualified and seasoned enterprise architects offer courses heavily loaded with actual industry examples in order to help attendees gain a better understanding of the Enterprise Architecture discipline.

Furthermore we offer additional courses that help our clients bridge the gap between TOGAF™ certification and actual implementation. These course run across further theory as well as practical application and ultimately in a client side mentoring program. This approach facilitates the maturing of your EA practice and capability based upon an EA roadmap and strategy.

Scope of the Training

TOGAF 9 Level 1 and 2

The training is conducted over 5 consecutive days. It works through the TOGAF™ 9 Level 1 and 2 material that can be downloaded at www.opengroup.org. On the 5th day an online test examines the delegates’, level 1 and level 2, understanding of the Architecture body of knowledge and assuming sufficient understanding is demonstrated the delegate will be certified with the "TOGAF™ Level 2 Certified" certification.
