Architecture Framework

The Practitioner

Certification Program

Specifically Designed for Business and IT Professionals Responsible forApplying Enterprise Architecture (EA) Discipline to Critical Programs

Comments from Our Graduates: “The FEAC program is excellent. It will turn even the worst skeptics into believers. When the training was over I wanted to preach the message of EA to everyone. This training is a must for IT professionals.”

Laura Edens Technical Director, Oracle Corporation

“I just wanted to drop you a note on how pleased I was with the class. I really feel like the class was very challenging and provided new information relevant to current issues in Enterprise Architecture. I really feel very prepared to be successful in implementing EA at my agency. Thanks for everything.”

Diane A. Reeves “As a direct result of the comprehensive EA Certification training our USDA RMA team received at the FEAC Institute in Fall '05, we are implementing our EA plan, processes, procedures, performing assessments, and working towards OMB assessment compliance and reporting requirements. The faculty at FEAC Institute are national leaders in EA and provided academic foundations, lessons learned, and valuable practical applications. Our RMA team continues to benefit from the technical support that extends beyond the certification practicum – Two thumbs Up!!"

Mike Martinez, CEA, PMP

“The fact that I've been certified through the FEAC course has made a difference to me and to my employer. You said that we're "trailblazers, and we are indeed leading the way toward EA in the Federal arena. I'm finding that qualified and senior consultants (who are experienced with business processes, system architecture, and other component parts of EA) are hungry to learn how to fit the parts together and how to sell the program to the business managers. I really appreciate the work you and the other FEAC Institute members have put into making this a useful course.”

Pat Taylor

“The FEAC Institute program delivers a complete understanding of the interrelated FEA(F), FEA, and CPIC policies and models, and it provides its graduates with an ongoing conduit to leading practices and developments in the field.”

Mark Youman Senior Principal, AMS

"For both FEAF and DoDAF I'd like to thank the FEAC Institute for offering the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) certification program. This course is invaluable for anyone in government or private industry to gain the credentials, required understanding, and initial (or reinforced) experience in Enterprise Architecture. This program effectively combines theoretic foundational principals, practical case studies from FEA implementers, interactive discussions, assignments and hands-on project work in order to promote disciplined FEA thinking and problem solving in challenging organizational environments."
