The Archist Difference

Let's hear it from our past trainees

"I thoroughly enjoyed learning the foundation of Business Architecture through this course. The mentor of the course "Navid Kheradmand"  made it really easy to comprehend the fundamentals of how a business architecture is created and what it entails. Case guide and the examples in different sections clearly helped to picture how the concepts are put to use. I am glad I have taken this course that has set me up for my next steps in the journey. Thank you Archist and Navid!"

 

Meeta Bajaj Jhawar, Business Architect, Insurance Industry

"Thank you for the certificate! The training program was very interesting. I particularly appreciated that Navid is clearly an experienced architect and that he shared a bit of his past work. His comments were always relevant and helpful. Sincerely thank you very much for the quality of your customer service and training program."
