Get a clear understanding of architecture work and how you, as a leader, can create real value with TOGAF. Our course, TOGAF® Management Overview, offers a practical introduction to the TOGAF framework and how it can be used to govern and support architecture work. It’s the perfect starting point if you want to understand TOGAF’s role in strategic leadership and business development.

Understand how you, as an IT leader, can guide and support architecture work

In many organizations, IT and business leaders face increasing demands: digital initiatives need to move faster, solutions must be sustainable over time, and teams must work in alignment. This is where Enterprise Architecture (EA) becomes a powerful tool and TOGAF® is one of the most widely used frameworks globally for bringing structure, governance, and alignment to architecture work.

TOGAF Management Overview is a one-day course tailored for those in leadership roles within IT, digital transformation, information technology, or product development, even if you’re not an architect yourself. You might lead architects, work closely with architecture teams, or be responsible for strategically important initiatives.

This course will help you understand how architecture works in practice, what TOGAF is, and how you as a leader can contribute to direction, engagement, and results.
