Four Information Dynamics Enterprise Architects Achieve Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) Certification
Elyria, OH -- Information Dynamics, a management and technology consulting company, congratulated four staff Enterprise Architects today for achieving Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) Certification. The newly certified Enterprise Architects were inducted as Federal Enterprise Architecture Institute Fellows and earned the right to use the coveted "Certified Enterprise Architect" title.
Bob Stauffer, Carolyn Van Drei, Maria Reeths, and David Seymour were all notified of their FEA certification by the Executive Director of the FEAC Institute earlier today. They recently completed the difficult three month Federal Enterprise Architecture Certification Institute (FEACI) Federal Enterprise Architecture Framework (FEAF) program started in October. The FEAF program consists of the four core Enterprise Architecture courses: enterprise architecture concepts, enterprise architecture program planning, enterprise architecture program implementation, and enterprise architecture program integration. Each of these courses is eligible as four Masters Degree semester hours with participating, accredited universities. A fully developed Practicum project defended with formal oral and graphic presentation was also necessary for graduation.
The Federal Enterprise Architecture Certification Institute (FEACI) offers both the Federal Enterprise Architecture Framework (FEAF) certification and Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DoDAF) certification in the emerging discipline of Enterprise Architecture.
