Do SOA Governance Right: Get SOA Governance Training and Certification!

• Are you struggling with making SOA work and troubled by governance concerns?
• Are you looking for SOA governance best practices for design-time, run-time, and change / version management?
• Do you want hands-on experience with SOA governance methods, tools, and frameworks before you commit to a SOA endeavor?
• Are you looking for a third-party credential to endorse your SOA governance knowledge?

If so, then register for the two-day SOA Governance training and certification workshop offered by ZapThink!

One of the biggest challenges facing the SOA marketplace is the lack of proper governance to make sure that SOA exists in a controlled environment, and not the potential chaos that can emerge from uncontrolled, dynamic consumption and composition. To address this challenge, ZapThink is accepting registrations for its Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) Governance Training and Certification courses. The first two-day courses will be run at the University of Virginia's Northern Virginia campus near metropolitan Washington, DC starting on August 3, 2009. The courses will run again on September 28, 2009.

The SOA Governance Training and Certifications courses address a significant and urgent need from enterprise architects and IT practitioners to achieve SOA success by governing the design, operation, running, and versioning of their SOA implementations. In ZapThink's two-day workshop, attendees will learn in-depth, practical SOA governance methodologies, techniques, and approaches in ways that are not specific to the particular technology du-jour or an individual vendor implementation. The SOA Governance training and certification course is led by skilled instructors who not only have architectural and governance expertise, but also know-how in how to apply SOA governance technologies and frameworks into practice. For attendees that already have an LZA credential, this course adds a SOA Governance endorsement that will further add to their knowledge and capabilities. The SOA governance course fills the unmet need for both SOA governance training as well as certification.
