The Enterprise Architecture Center Of Excellence™ (EACOE.org) provides a universal understanding and competence forum on “Enterprise Architecture” for Enterprise Architects, Technologists, Management, Analysts, Executives, and Academicians interested in developing, implementing, and managing the highest returning and most cost-effective Enterprise Architecture.
The state-of-the-art, proven approach to Technology Planning, Business Understanding, and Change. EACOE.org is the definitive source for Realistic, Enabling, Actionable, Logical (R.E.A.L.) Enterprise Architecture.
The Enterprise Architecture Center Of Excellence™ (EACOE) Enterprise Architecture Training and Certification Workshop is the ONLY Enterprise Architecture program that provides everything Professionals and Organizations need to get going “Monday Morning;” high-returning methods, easy-to-use tools, proven techniques, optimized framework, real-world examples, step-by-step videos, and more!
You and your team gain and practice the most cost-effective Enterprise Architecture approach, with the only (vendor-neutral) integrated environment focused on successful Enterprise outcome-driven results and frictionless development/implementation/management efforts.
Once you attend, we are focused on your success, which DOES NOT include any recurring monthly/annual fees that lock you in forever.
We are Enterprise Architect Practitioners that educate. We use the education forum to get people to recognize what R.E.A. L. Enterprise Architecture is and show that education and certifications need to come through actual practice.
“Others” only provide encyclopedias of declared “Enterprise Architecture” knowledge, but they do not tell you what to do with that knowledge! Do not spend your time, your effort, and your budget on a "base of knowledge" and find you still have no ACTION plan.
Different from “other” courses, which ONLY guarantee passing an exam, we ensure you and your team are able to demonstrate developing the highest-quality Enterprise Architecture based on real-world issues and events.
Coming out of the world-class practitioner-based Workshops are Certified Practitioners with the skills, knowledge, and tools to develop, implement, and manage high-returning and cost-effective Realistic, Enabling, Actionable, and Logical (R.E.A.L.) Enterprise Architecture.

The techniques outlined in The Enterprise Architecture Center Of Excellence™ (EACOE) Enterprise Architecture Programs are universally effective techniques, regardless of the planning domain. R.E.A.L. Enterprise Architecture is the rethinking of how business planning and information technology work together in order to achieve strategic goals.
The EACOE Quick Start Enterprise Architecture Methodology demystifies the process of designing the architecture of the Enterprise. It provides a step-by-step approach to Enterprise Architecture, ensuring the organization meets the goals and objectives established by management. The Methodology enables organizations to use Enterprise Architecture as a decision-making tool for business strategy, information technology development and alignment, risk analysis, and project and program prioritization.
“Other” firms ONLY guarantee passing an exam. Some only offer encyclopedias of declared “Enterprise Architecture” knowledge - but they do not tell you what to do with that knowledge! Do not spend your time, your effort, and your budget on a "base of knowledge" or “multiple choice (guess) exam” and find you still have no proven ACTION plan.
EACOE has had the privilege of assisting over 4,500 Organizations in "R.E.A.L." Enterprise Architecture engagements. Over 165,000 Professionals are educated and trained using EACOE's approach to Enterprise Architecture.
Whether you are new to the field, are motivated for enhanced Knowledge, or desire state-of-the-art qualifications, attending an Enterprise Architecture Training and Certification Workshop from EACOE will provide many benefits to you, your Organization, and your Career.
We are Enterprise Architect Practitioners that educate, and we use the education forum to get people to recognize what is happening in Enterprise Architecture and show that education and certifications need to come through actual practice – the key to the concept of a Workshop rather than a seminar.
People who want to practice Enterprise Architecture or learn about it are in a difficult spot; it has become more difficult than ever to separate Enterprise Architecture facts from beliefs, experiences from opinions, and sound practices from declarations.
The field appears so irregular because academia, publications, consultants, and the Internet, present Enterprise Architecture in disparate voices advancing a multitude of approaches, meanings, and sets of expectations—some based on internet writings, some based on conjecture, and some based on opinion, and yes, some based on sound Enterprise Architecture practice.
1) The essential first question is, "Does what I am hearing or seeing make sense?"
We try to relate physical analogies to what we hear about Enterprise Architecture to provide a frame of reference.
We suggest if something does not make sense in the physical world, it probably is not valid in the Enterprise or Enterprise Architecture world.
Sometimes instead of logic, we believe what we want to hear, and that is called "confirmation bias."
2) Another good question is, "Is this statement I have just read just a bunch of words?"
Nothing is true just because it is stated frequently. And we recognize that the internet does not have “best practices” – it only has “published practices”!
3) The third question is, "Who is saying this, and what is his or her background?"
Has someone who says something about Enterprise Architecture (whatever the definition) verifiably ever done Enterprise Architecture?
Below are fact-based descriptions regarding Enterprise Architecture that are grounded in logic, sound practices, and principles based on decades of field engagements and experience.
Enterprise Architecture is not just about information technology—in fact, it never has been, from our perspective and many other practitioners. Enterprise Architecture is about understanding and representing the Enterprise in a manner the business community understands, and it communicates this understanding to technology personnel for automation and mechanization where desired. Yet, Enterprise Architecture can serve the business community independent of automation or technology implementation. It allows more precise, less ambiguous, and more consistent communication between business personnel and also between business and technology personnel.
A growing number of EACOE Enterprise Architecture Workshop attendees already have Enterprise Architecture training or “certification” prior to attending. We have seen a pattern of 26 “items” noted by these attendees as “gaps” or “needs” that were recognized after these attendees received their “other” certification and have been addressed at EACOE.
For those of you that have already Enterprise Architecture certification, and would like to “test” what you received in your certification, are questioning the readiness to actually develop Enterprise Architectures, or now perceive gaps in understanding that may need to be addressed, this questionnaire can guide you in supplementing your existing knowledge.
