These results can be achieved only with a well-designed architecture. It is a system’s architecture that determines its quality.

Determining the right architecture or improving the one you have requires knowledge and skill. Now you can learn architecture practices from experts who have been identifying, developing, and advocating practices for developing high-quality software for decades—practices that have been adopted and validated by leading software development organizations throughout the world.

With credentials from the SEI, you can help your organization build a solid architectural foundation.

The SEI Software Architecture Professional Certificate Program is for

• software professionals and architects who want to improve their capabilities through practical training based on enduring principles that are not vendor or product specific.
• organizations that want architecture practitioners who are ready to build or evolve software that meets business goals such as reliability, short time to market, predictability, and modifiability.

For a look at the SEI's current architecture work, read The Monitor - an SEI publication that recently focused on architecture-centric practices.
