Overview
Just as the futurists have been predicting for many years, the information
revolution has become a reality. Technology has penetrated every aspect of the Enterprise and its exploitation has impacted the very structure of many industries. The
world has become a global, electronic marketplace. Enterprises are beginning to
perceive the significance of process ... process that knows no organisational
boundaries, inside or outside of the Enterprise itself. Organisational
hierarchies are becoming obsolete as power is clearly shifting from the top to
the bottom and then beyond the enterprise. Technology innovation proceeds at
blinding rates. Enterprises are under heavy stress as global economies begin to
react to the early phases of the Information Age.
John Zachman wrote an article in 1999, “Enterprise Architecture: The Issue of the Century” in which he argued that the Enterprise that can accommodate the concepts of Enterprise Architecture will have the opportunity to stay in the game … whereas, the Enterprise that cannot accommodate the concepts of Enterprise Architecture will not be in the game. It would appear that this prophecy is coming to pass before our very eyes. Enterprises in the public sector as well as the private sector are coming under heavy stress.
Enterprise Architecture is fundamental for enabling an enterprise to assimilate internal changes in response to the external dynamics and uncertainties of the information age environment. It not only constitutes a baseline for managing change, but also provides the mechanism by which the reality of the enterprise and its systems can be aligned with management intentions.
This new and revised three day seminar, presented by John Zachman himself, will enable delegates to build an understanding of the concepts of Enterprise Architecture and develop a sense of urgency for implementing those concepts in a modern enterprise. It also serves as the foundation for the Zachman Certification Program. Upon completion of this 3 day seminar and passing the ICCP Zachman Framework Enterprise Architecture Test, which is taken at the end of the 3rd day of the seminar, the participant will receive the eZachman Certification (the Education Zachman Certification). (Please note that all delegates will require a lap top in order to b e able to take the exams on the 3rd day of the course).

Conclusions and Charge
Audience
The seminar is designed for enterprise professionals of every discipline
including non-information disciplines as well as information disciplines.
Although it is addressing technology issues, it is not a "technical"
seminar. It addresses the subjects that both enterprise professionals and
information professionals must understand to operate effectively in
collaboration in the Information Age environment.
Further, the seminar is appropriate for both management and non-management professionals. For management it clarifies the issues for decision purposes and enables more meaningful dialogue with and among the technology community. For operations professionals, it establishes the context for developing improved approaches and implementation strategies.
Typical delegates include:
- Chief Information Officers
- Information Systems Management
- Data, Applications, Technology Management
- Enterprise Architects
- Data, Applications, Technology Architects
- Business Architects
- Business, Systems Analysts
- Consultants
- Strategic Planners
