Description

In this three day workshop, participants will learn the fundamentals of business architecture – from concepts and principles aligned with the BIZBOK, to practices and applications that will demonstrate the value of architectural blueprints and models in supporting strategic and operational planning and management.

As a characteristic of all of IAG’s courses, participants will learn more than just theory, but will learn how they can apply concepts and best practices in their role—on the job. We will describe the basic steps of developing and using some of the foundational models of business architecture. By the end of the workshop, participants should have an understanding of how business architecture can be used to address various business scenarios such as project portfolio optimization, business transformations, requirements backlog prioritization, and business/IT alignment.
