This course explores the advanced features of Enterprise Architect. Building on the Enterprise Architect Intermediate course, the EA Advanced course is a mix of lecture, discussion, and lab work that teaches students how to create customized solutions for projects and enterprises. At the conclusion of the training students will be prepared to customize EA to fit their unique project needs to enhance team productivity. All of the EA Principals training classes have been updated to support EA 15.1. Other versions can be used upon request. The case study used in the training can be adapted to an organization’s needs – e.g. software engineering, systems engineering, business process or analysis. When combined with the Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect – Intermediate course the course length can be compressed to 5 days total.
