What is the purpose of the IT Architecture Guidebook Project?
The goal is to create an IT architecture capability guidebook based on Iasa’s 5 pillars of architecture that conveys best practices and learning objectives at each level of architectural growth. The target audience are aspiring IT architects and already practicing IT architects with a number of years in the profession who wish to gain a better understanding of what soft skill capabilities are needed in IT architecture. This guidebook will also assist hiring managers, business managers and human resource representatives.
What is expected of me?
The expectation is to have a working draft to share with others in the group for feedback within 1-2 weeks and a final draft ready for peer within 3 weeks. This is flexible depending on interruptions in life and work but is a goal. One capability typically takes 4-8 hours to write. You can view a completed capability by clicking here.
