- Good tie-in with TOGAF and other known frameworks and methodologies - Excellent real-world examples to give more context behind theory elements - Provided take-home SA resources that are valuable for the workplace - Pragmatic approach to teaching
(4.40 out of 5) DAVID A [ 24 July, 2017 ]
Course confirmed and reinforced understanding of the "soft skillS" orientation of the Solutions Architecture role, and importantly confirmed that originally the role was known as Systems Analysis, which I was taught in my undergraduate Computer Science degree many years ago. This helps greatly with understanding which skills I already possess, which to develop and how to position them in the SA role going forward.

Extremely insightful content!! Valuable industry experience sharing by George which i think i will be using back at work. The concepts were explained with real life examples.

Lars made the course very enjoyable by weaving in real life scenarios to help understand the course content and how to apply it into real work situations. The course was very interactive and a good learning experience. I look forward to more courses on the topics around Solution Architecture.
