EA Learning’s TOGAF® EA – Practitioner Bridge course covers the key changes and updates introduced in the TOGAF® Standard, 10th edition, including new concepts, techniques, and best practices. It is designed to help individuals transition smoothly to a certified TOGAF® Enterprise Architecture Practitioner and to ensure you have a solid understanding of the latest version of the framework. The course covers topics such as the new structure of the TOGAF® Standard, 10th Edition framework, the Business Scenario technique, Architecture Content Framework, and an update on the Architecture Development Method (ADM).
Throughout our course, students work in cohorts on a case study (Learning Studies) to apply TOGAF® EA concepts in real-world situations. Our presenters, having successfully upgraded their own TOGAF® 9 Certifications to latest release of the TOGAF® Standard, 10th Edition, are eager to share their insights with fellow TOGAF® practitioners to aid in certification preparation.
The significant themes for the TOGAF® Standard, 10th Edition
The TOGAF® standard, 10th Edition is a paradigm shift from 9.2 integrating universal concepts, proven best practices and emerging ideas.
From Monolith to Micro Services:
As part of The Open Group’s evolution ‘from universal to unique’ the one monolithic document 9.2 has become six separate documents known as the Fundamental Content (the universal concepts). Also included are 20 series guides, which will grow over time, for specialist content (best practice) . This speaks to specific types of architecture, for example Applying the TOGAF® ADM using Agile Sprints or Integrating Risk and Security within a TOGAF® Architecture. Finally, the introduction of bodies of knowledge (BOK) for different learning outcomes including Enterprise Architecture, Business Architecture, Specialist, Leader. It is noted that more will follow to enable differing learning pathways.
Easier Adoption:
An online digital standard has been introduced with much-simplified navigation. This paves the way for easier adoption. As each enterprise is unique, the specialist guidance may or may not apply. For example, you may be undergoing a significant digital transformation but not be using Agile. Use the distinct hierarchy of content that fits with your unique enterprise.
Extended Guidance for Practitioners, Leaders and Specialists:
The companion guides talk to the various roles within Enterprise Architecture. How do I set up an EA Practice? How do I apply Business Architecture? What reference models should I use? What security architecture should I apply? The Whole Enterprise Approach is the sum of its equal parts.
Learning Pathways:
Several learning pathways exist that focus on a group of learners and their respective skills set. Micro credentials can be earned in line with career progression including Foundation, Practitioner, Specialist and other credentials such as Leader, Agile Specialist, Digital Specialist.
Attendees must already be Certified in TOGAF® 9. This includes Versions 9.1 and 9.2

Enterprise architecture involves the design and management of IT infrastructures, focusing on the assembly and interaction of various elements to provide a comprehensive view. Organisations often rely on TOGAF-certified architects to align these architectures with business objectives, crucial for supporting large-scale transformations, IT development, and organisational change.
TOGAF stands for The Open Group Architecture Framework. It is a collaboration platform where The Open Group works with technology stakeholders and standard-setting bodies to develop clear standards, establish policies, and disseminate effective practices.
Organisations across all sizes, sectors, and industries benefit from the TOGAF standard, as it helps streamline operations and manage complex business strategies efficiently. While any organisation can adopt the TOGAF standard, optimal usage requires a certified architect.
The certification path starts with the TOGAF Enterprise Architecture Foundation (Part 1), followed by the TOGAF Enterprise Architecture Practitioner (Part 2) exam. The TOGAF Business Architecture (BA) exam and credential courses do not require previous exam completions.
TOGAF-certified professionals typically earn between $85,000 and $202,000 annually, according to Payscale. The certification is increasingly valuable as businesses seek to integrate IT infrastructures with business operations globally.
The TOGAF framework boasts a widespread adoption in over 130 countries, with significant certifications occurring in the UK, USA, India, the Netherlands, and Australia. TOGAF-certified architects are in demand worldwide.
