Exploring Enterprise Architectures for Higher Education

Enterprise Architectures Group Pilot

JISC has funded four projects to investigate an enterprise architecture approach to service oriented development at institutional level through the application and evaluation of The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF).

This initiative is funded as part of the e-Learning Capital Programme building on the e-Framework aspects of the programme. It is recognised that enterprise architecture has a wider applicability than e-Learning and therefore this initiative aims to address institutional architecture rather than just that of e-Learning.

The Enterprise Architecture Group Pilot Initiative seeks to:

  • provide support for existing early adopters of Enterprise and Service Oriented Architectures;
  • support exchange between them;
  • support exchange between them and experienced Enterprise Architects;
  • evaluate the costs and benefits;
  • synthesise the learning and providing recommendations;
  • make the findings and resources created during the programme available to the wider community.
