Hello EA’s & Potential Enterprise Architects,
One of the biggest questions I am asked, or more common anyways, is “How Do I Become an EA?” The answer is a little complicated, and so it deserves this video explanation. I speak about the Enterprise Architect Education or Enterprise Architecture Training you might take, I speak about the Enterprise Architect Role, as well as some of the activities that an Enterprise Architect may participate in. I also mention some of the considerations an Enterprise Architect may want to make before taking this role, and I talk about some of the biggest parts of your day as an EA. I mention the types of actions a new or potential enterprise architect might want to take before getting into the role, or the practice tasks they might enjoy as a “test drive”.
Well – enough about that – check out the video, and if you have the ability to get to the Calgary area in the beginning of May, you might want to enrol in the Enterprise Architect Fundamentals workshop on May 8th & 9th. Early bird registration ends tonight at midnight.

Enjoy and I look forward to reading your comments.
Happy Architecting!

IT ARCHITECTURE TRAINING WORKSHOPS
IT Architect Training is needed to get your IT organization in the best shape ever. This is the original Architect Boot Camp and started in 2002. These classes are not readily offered at universities, nor at many technical training colleges. Architect training is required because to become an architect, it takes a combination of experience, skill and desire, as well as some very specialized training in process, methods and soft skills.
We created some of the very first IT Architecture training ever, and have been doing it for over ten years. Check out our calendar, and let us know what you are interested in. We periodically offer schedule public training based on demand, and custom site architecture training is always available.
The Architect Boot Camp training workshops for winter/spring 2012. IT Architecture Training is planned… Download our catalogue of publicly available architecture workshops. Indicate your interest in future architecture seminars, or contact us about a custom onsite architecture education at your workplace.
Also – See our Training Testimonials.

You’ve heard about it, might have read about it and it’s just about time to be able to access it. It you were at my 2008 Las Vegas presentation entitled “Good to Great – Paving the Road to Excellence for the Enterprise Architect, this is the full length version complete with how to get this knowledge. This is the full body of knowledge and research on which the abbreviated speech at the Chicago Open Group Enterprise Architecture Conference was based.
Thank you so much to all of you who contacted me after both of those speeches and presentations as it inspired me to finally get this down on paper.

Zoom Factor
It’s Zoom Factor for the Enterprise Architect: How to Focus and Accelerate Your Career.
This book is full of information and the career roadmap an Enterprise Architect may take to achieve excellence in their field. It’s full of checklists and shortcuts as well as a full guide to choosing the intelligence you need to acquire to become great.
Stay tuned for information on how to get advanced copies and an audio preview. It will be available on it’s own website, as well as at other bookstores and online bookstores.
It truly was happy architecting!
