Mike Walker presented on enterprise architecture certifications. He discussed that there are various certification options focused on validating skills, learning industry standards, or supplemental academic learning. The Open Group offers the Open CA certification which validates experience through applications and interviews rather than exams. It has three levels and over 3,300 certified professionals worldwide. TOGAF and ArchiMate are other certifications offered through The Open Group to tune architecture skills or provide foundational learning. Walker encouraged attendees to ask about certifications, mentor others, and consider certifying themselves on the best path.

ProblemsGenerally speaking the industry is confused what certification are out there and what they are forToo many options and are overwhelmedAngry that the certification didn’t meet the expectationResolutionHave a different mental frame on how to think about certifications
Competency Based Certifications – These certifications are focused at evaluating your experience to validate that you are indeed an architect. Much like many other certifications in the industry (e.g., PMP). These are much different to others that determine what you know instead of how you applied the knowledge.Industry / Specialized Certifications – Driven from a predetermined set of concerns such as the federal government or a specific industry is where these derive from. While these certifications are critical in that vertical, often times they do not transfer well across verticals given the difference in drivers and motivations of these very specific bodies of knowledge.Foundational Certifications – Provides the essential skills for EA’s. These certifications are different from the other two in the respect that they validate that you’re an architect while foundational certifications validate that you know a specific methods, models and/or tools. These certifications are essential to EA’s as they populate the EA’s toolbox. For example, without an overall enterprise architecture framework how would we be truly effective as EA’s?Applied – Divided into two primary areas, Academic and Vendor Tailored they either support a certification or provide a certification highly tailored. These are in a supporting function to Competency Based Certifications.Supporting Certifications and Learning's – These certifications make a well rounded enterprise architect. These are often referred to or leveraged in the day in the life of an EA.
