NATO Architecture Framework (NAF) Training in Belgrade

This instructor-led, live training in Belgrade (online or onsite) is aimed at beginner-level to advanced-level architects and professionals in the field of enterprise architecture who wish to gain a comprehensive understanding and practical skills in utilizing the NAF for enterprise architecture. It covers all aspects without focusing on specific views or functions. Sparx Enterprise Architect or any other preferred tools are used.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Navigate NAF documentation efficiently.
• Utilize Sparx Enterprise Architect for architecture-related tasks.
• Describe and understand different types of NATO architectures.
• Generate and interpret NATO Architecture Views.
• Identify and analyze stakeholders and Communities of Interest (CoIs).
• Align stakeholders' interests with the architecture.
• Analyze and document CoI's architecture interests and impacts.

This instructor-led, live training in Belgrade (online or onsite) is aimed at intermediate-level professionals who wish to understand and apply NAF to support enterprise architecture design and decision-making across defense-related projects.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the structure and purpose of the NATO Architecture Framework.
• Identify and describe various architecture views within NAF.
• Map stakeholder requirements to architectural components.
• Use tools like Sparx Enterprise Architect to create NAF-compliant models.

Objective: This course is designed to assist participants in understanding how to implement the UAF and NAF enterprise architecture frameworks effectively.

Gaining insight into the concepts of UAF 1.1 within the context of the NATO NAF v4 Architecture Framework is highly beneficial. The Domain Meta-model (DMM) of UAF addresses various stakeholder concerns, such as security, information, and measurements, through a set of predefined viewpoints. These are then mapped to the corresponding views in NAFv4.

Additionally, the Architecture Stages of the NATO NAFv4 Methodology help participants understand how to efficiently utilize the views of UAF to ensure coherence and completeness. This methodology also enables traceability from high-level goals down to the personal and physical resources required to achieve them.

Throughout the course, attendees will progressively apply the concepts and techniques learned through an end-to-end case study and a series of exercises.

Format of the Course

• Interactive lecture and discussion sessions.
• A variety of exercises and practical activities.
• Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
