The Open Group The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF) is a framework - a detailed method and a set of supporting tools - for developing an enterprise architecture, developed by members of The Open Group Architecture Forum. This 2008 Edition is based on TOGAF Version 9.0.

As a comprehensive, open method for enterprise architecture, TOGAF 9 complements, and can be used in conjunction with, other frameworks that are more focused on specific aspects of architecture or for vertical sectors such as Government, Defense, and Finance.

TOGAF may be used freely by any organization wishing to develop an enterprise architecture for use within that organization (subject to the Conditions of Use).

Rachel Harrison This document is a Study Guide for TOGAF 9 Foundation. It gives an overview of every learning objective for the TOGAF 9 Foundation Syllabus and in-depth coverage on preparing and taking the TOGAF 9 Part 1 Examination. It is specifically designed to help individuals prepare for certification. The audience for this Study Guide is: individuals who require a basic understanding of TOGAF 9; professionals who are working in roles associated with an architecture project such as those responsible for planning, execution, development, delivery, and operation; architects who are looking for a first introduction to TOGAF 9; architects who want to achieve Level 2 certification in a stepwise manner and have not previously qualified as TOGAF 8 Certified. A prior knowledge of enterprise architecture is advantageous but not required.

Rachel Harrison, for The Open Group The purpose of certification to TOGAF 9 Certified is to provide validation that, in addition to the knowledge and comprehension of TOGAF 9 Foundation, the Candidate is able to analyze and apply this knowledge. The learning objectives at this level therefore focus on application and analysis in addition to knowledge and comprehension. The TOGAF 9 People certification program is a knowledge-based certification program. It has two levels, leading to certification for TOGAF 9 Foundation and TOGAF 9 Certified, respectively. The topic for this Study Guide is preparation for the TOGAF 9 Part 2 Examination or Section 2 of the TOGAF 8 9 Advanced Bridge Examination, leading to TOGAF 9 Certified.
