IASA Architecture Foundation Class in Irvine, May 17-21, 2010

Here is the information on the intensive Architecture Foundation course that the local IASA chapter will be running in Irvine, May 17-21, 2010. This course prepares the attendee for taking the IASA Foundation Certification exam which is also administered as part of the course. (See below.)

IASA Foundation 101/102 Combined

This combination delivery of Foundation 101 and 102 packs 8 days of training into 5 days. The student is assigned self-paced pre-work that covers IASA Foundation 101. They then attend a 5-day delivery starting with a brief Q&A period to answer any questions on the content of Foundation 101. Once complete, delivery of 102 begins and is covered in full. On Day 5 of the training, the IASA Foundation certification exam is delivered. All information covered in the IASA Foundation certification exam is covered in Foundation 101 and 102 courses.  

  • Foundation 101 - provides a high level overview of the skills that the worldwide IASA community have found to be essential to every practicing IT architect. The skills are separated into five foundational capability areas (Human Dynamics, IT Environment, Design Skills, Quality Attributes, Business Technology Strategy). The course presents descriptions and examples of each capability in the IASA skills matrix. Additionally, the course provides a structure to organize lifelong learning for the IT architect profession as well as an approach to effectively engage with key stakeholders.
  • Foundation 102 - provides the students with practical, useable skills they can put to use immediately. The course is structured to work through a project’s lifecycle from envisioning through operating. Students review a fictitious organization, prioritizing possible projects and then working their selected project through to an operational state.

The course will be administered at a cost of $3,000—IASA is offering group discounts for organizations that send more than 5 architects.  You can register online from IASA’s homepage, www.iasahome.org or directly by contacting Colin Cairn, IASA Director of Sales, 512-909-9855.
