  • TOGAF 9 Certification Overview

    You are likely trapped in the "implementation trap." You are the one correcting the code, stabilizing the servers, and resolving crises caused by short-term decisions made years ago. You comprehend the systems better than anyone, yet you are still reporting to leaders who cannot distinguish a microservice from a monolith. Meanwhile, Enterprise Architecture professionals holding the TOGAF 9 Certification are the ones setting the course, defining the roadmap, and demanding billing rates 30-50% higher than yours. They do not resolve defects; they design the future of the organization. Your resume is currently being excluded by HR systems at major your region's IT consultancies and MNCs because you lack the standard vocabulary of high-level strategy. You may have the required experience, but without the credential, you are invisible for the Principal Architect and Chief Architect roles. That ends now. This is not a theoretical review of The Open Group's history. Our TOGAF 9 training course is developed by active Enterprise Architects who have reorganized complex IT environments in the local area's technology parks and financial districts. They have navigated legacy spaghetti code, resistant stakeholders, and financial restrictions. They built this program to instruct you on the Architecture Development Method (ADM) not as a dull academic exercise, but as a crucial tool to bypass corporate bureaucracy and impose technical standards. Unlike minimal "dump-and-run" training sessions that provide you with a PDF and minimal assistance, we build architectural thinking. You will learn how to bridge the divide between business strategy and IT execution. The examination is merely a hurdle?the true value is confidently walking into a boardroom and justifying why a multi-million dollar migration is necessary, utilizing the specific governance frameworks that executives respect. We have designed this for employed IT professionals who cannot afford to waste time. We offer weekday evening and weekend cohorts, fully interactive with live Q&A. Beyond the training, you receive case studies relevant to the your region's market, 24/7 expert support, and a direct path to passing the TOGAF 9 Combined exam?saving you the time and expense of taking Level 1 and Level 2 separately.

    Eligibility and Pre-requisites

    Unlike other restrictive certifications, The Open Group focuses on knowledge, not gatekeeping based on years of service. However, do not mistake "open eligibility" for "easy."

    Eligibility Criteria:

    No Formal Prerequisites: There are no educational or experience requirements to take the TOGAF 9 certification exam.

    Recommended Experience: While not mandatory, we strongly recommend successful candidates possess at least 3-5 years of experience in IT, modeling, or system design. The concepts are abstract and challenging to fully grasp without a reference point in real-world application.

    Assessment: You must successfully pass both Part 1 (Foundation) and Part 2 (Certified) exams to achieve the full TOGAF 9 Certified status.

    TOGAF 9 Certification & Exam FAQ

    Find answers to common questions about our course and certification

    What is the distinction between TOGAF 9 Foundation and TOGAF 9 Certified?
    Foundation (Level 1) confirms that you are familiar with the terminology and fundamental concepts. It is a recall test. Certified (Level 2) verifies your ability to analyze and apply that knowledge to resolve real-world issues. Both are necessary to become a fully TOGAF 9 Certified professional.
    What is the approximate cost of the TOGAF 9 exam?
    The exam price changes based on your region, but generally the TOGAF 9 Combined (Part 1 and 2) examination is about $550 USD. If you opt to take them separately, the cost increases (around $360 USD each). We strongly recommend sitting for the combined exam to conserve both capital and time.
    What is the passing requirement for the TOGAF 9 certification exam?
    For Part 1 (Foundation), a score of 55% is required (22 out of 40 questions). This section is closed book. For Part 2 (Certified), you need 60% (24 out of 40 points). Part 2 is open book, but do not be overconfident?the questions present complex scenarios where you must select the most appropriate answer.
    Should I pursue TOGAF 9 or TOGAF 10?
    TOGAF 10 is the latest version, yet TOGAF 9 remains the most extensively adopted version across the industry and is still fully relevant. Numerous established contracts and large enterprises in your region still specifically require version 9. Our curriculum addresses the core tenets relevant to both, but is primarily focused on helping you achieve the current TOGAF 9 credential which is widely respected.
    Is the Part 2 examination genuinely "open book"?
    Yes, but there is a caveat. You gain access to a PDF of the TOGAF standard incorporated into the testing software. Nevertheless, the search functionality is often cumbersome, and the time limit is strict. If you depend on searching for every solution, you will likely fail. You must comprehend the subject matter; the standard is merely for rapid confirmation.
    What happens if I fail one component of the Combined exam?
    If you fail Part 1 but pass Part 2, you fail the entire attempt. If you pass Part 1 but fail Part 2, you retain the credit for Part 1 and only need to reattempt Part 2. You are obligated to observe a one-month waiting period before retaking the examination.
    How long does the TOGAF 9 certification remain valid?
    The certification holds validity indefinitely. Unlike PMP or other credentials that demand continuous PDUs and renewal fees every three years, once you attain TOGAF 9 Certified status, you keep the designation permanently. It represents a lasting asset on your professional profile.
    Is it possible to complete the exam digitally or must I attend a physical testing facility?
    You have the choice of taking it via OnVUE (online proctoring) or at a Pearson VUE test center. We strongly advise choosing the test center. The remote proctors are exceedingly stringent about your environment, and any interruption in internet connectivity could void your exam. Centers in the local area are a safer choice.
    Is membership with The Open Group required to sit for the exam?
    No. You are not required to be a member. You simply need to set up a complimentary account on The Open Group website to register for the exam through Pearson VUE.
    What knowledge or experience is necessary for the training?
    There are no formal prerequisites. However, having some background in IT infrastructure, software development, or business analysis will significantly simplify the understanding of the concepts.
    How many questions are included in the TOGAF 9 certification exam?
    Part 1 consists of 40 multiple-choice questions (straight pass/fail). Part 2 includes 8 complex scenario questions. In Part 2, answers are scored on a scale: 5 points for the superior answer, 3 for the second best, 1 for the third, and 0 for the incorrect option.
    Is this certification beneficial for individuals outside of the IT field?
    It is primarily intended for IT professionals, but Business Architects and Strategy Consultants also benefit substantially. If your position involves bridging the divide between organizational objectives and technical execution, this is considered the benchmark standard.
    How is the "Combined" exam structured?
    You first attempt Part 1 (60 minutes). Immediately after you complete this section or the time expires, you commence Part 2 (90 minutes). You are unable to return to Part 1 once Part 2 has begun. This constitutes a long testing session, which is why our simulators are essential for building endurance.
    Which study materials are optimal for the exam?
    The official TOGAF 9 Standard documentation serves as the primary resource. Nevertheless, it contains hundreds of pages of tedious technical writing. Our course provides condensed study guides, "pocket guides," and reference sheets that compress this content to precisely what you require to achieve a passing grade.
    Does this training package include the TOGAF 9 exam voucher?
    Kindly review the specific package information in the "Finance & Enrollment" section. Generally, the training fee covers the instruction and materials, while the exam fee is paid directly to Pearson VUE/The Open Group, though we can help organize voucher purchases for organizational groups.

    Customer Testimonials

    Course & Support

    How long does the training take to complete?
    The program is typically delivered as a 4-day intensive bootcamp or spread over 2 weekends. The content is dense, so we recommend an additional 2-3 weeks of self-study using our LMS before attempting the exam.
    What are the different training formats available?
    We offer E-Learning for self-paced study, Instructor-Led Live Class for interactive online learning, and Classroom Training for immersive experiences in major hubs like Bangalore and Mumbai.9
    Are the classes live or just pre-recorded videos?
    Our Instructor-Led sessions are 100% live and interactive. You can interrupt the instructor, ask questions, and debate architectural scenarios in real-time.
    What if a work commitment forces me to miss a scheduled class?
    Every session is recorded. You can watch the replay within 24 hours on our LMS. You can also jump into a future batch for the specific module you missed at no extra cost.
    How flexible is the program if my schedule changes?
    We are built for working professionals. You can defer your training or switch batches if a sudden project delivery comes up at work.
    Who are the instructors?
    Our instructors are TOGAF 9 Certified practitioners with 15+ years of experience. They are not just trainers; they are working architects who know how the theory applies to real-world messiness.
    What are the class sizes like?
    We keep batches small to ensure high interaction. Enterprise Architecture discussions require depth, which isn't possible in a webinar of 500 people.
    Is there a difference between the weekday and weekend batches?
    Content-wise, no. The pace is the only difference. Weekend batches are more intensive (longer hours per day), while weekday batches are spread out in shorter evening bursts.
    Do I need any special software to attend?
    No specialized modeling tools are required for the training. You just need a browser and a stable internet connection. We use standard conferencing tools.
    Is this training valid for candidates outside India?
    Yes. TOGAF 9 is a global standard. Our training is effective whether you are in Dubai, London, New York, or Bangalore.
