Requirements

Basic Knowledge of TOGAF and Enterprise Architecture would be the gift

Description

The ArchiSurance Case Study is a comprehensive, industry-standard example developed by The Open Group to demonstrate the power of the ArchiMate® modeling language within the TOGAF® framework.

This course follows the journey of ArchiSurance—a firm born from the merger of three independent insurance companies. We begin by documenting the Baseline Architecture and progress through complex Transformation Scenarios, providing a realistic look at how enterprise architecture drives organizational change.

What’s New in the 2025 Edition?

Following the success of the 2023 series (which earned a spot in the Udemy Business collection with over 20,000 views), this 2025 edition has been completely rebuilt from the ground up.

Full ArchiMate 3.2 Compliance: Updated to the latest standards, removing the inconsistencies of older versions.
Modern Tooling: Hands-on demonstrations using Archi v5.5.0.
Enhanced Production Quality: Improved recording techniques for better visual and audio clarity.
Community-Driven Improvements: Content refined based on feedback from over 400 specialized students in the Udemy Business program.

Course Methodology & Key Features

This is a hands-on, practical course. We move beyond theory to build a living architecture repository.

Structured Learning: We use FreePlane Mind Mapping to navigate the course hierarchy, ensuring you never lose sight of the "big picture."
Atomic Lessons: Each lecture focuses on completing one specific View, making it easy to digest and reference later.
Incremental Repository Building: You will gradually construct a full Enterprise Architecture Repository for ArchiSurance.
Version Control: Learn to generate model snapshots and track architectural changes using our dedicated GitHub repository.
Active Modeling: This is not a "passive watch" course. You are encouraged to open the Archi tool and model alongside the instructor.
