Online MODAF Training in US

The Ministry of Defence Architecture Framework (MODAF) is an internationally recognized enterprise architecture framework developed by the U.S. Department of Defense to support defense planning and change management activities. It facilitates the capture and presentation of information in a rigorous, coherent, and comprehensive manner, enhancing the understanding of complex issues.

The Audience:

• Enterprise Architects, who are the primary users of MODAF views, need to interpret standard MODAF views accurately and specify and control the tasks required to create new views for government.
• Architectural Modellers require guidance on creating and exchanging MODAF views, including architecting principles, view coherence rules, and tool selection criteria.
• Tool Developers and Engineers are responsible for implementing architectural data repositories to store and manipulate MODAF architecture data elements.
• Trainers and Educators need reference materials to effectively train and support the various types of MODAF users.
• MODAF Users who wish to contribute to the ongoing development and improvement of MODAF.
• Managers who require an understanding of which views are necessary to address their specific questions and needs.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is designed for intermediate-level professionals who wish to understand and apply the NATO Architecture Framework (NAF) to support enterprise architecture design and decision-making across defense-related projects for government. By the end of this training, participants will be able to: - Understand the structure and purpose of the NATO Architecture Framework. - Identify and describe various architecture views within NAF. - Map stakeholder requirements to architectural components. - Utilize tools such as Sparx Enterprise Architect to create NAF-compliant models.

The Unified Profile for DoDAF and MODAF (UPDM) is an initiative led by the Object Management Group (OMG) to develop a comprehensive modeling standard. This standard supports both the United States Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DoDAF) and the United Kingdom Ministry of Defence Architecture Framework (MODAF). The UPDM aims to enhance interoperability and consistency in architecture modeling, ensuring that it aligns with the needs and requirements for government use.
