Preparing TOGAF 9 Certification

Last week, I cleared the TOGAF 9 part -2 so now I'm a TOGAF 9 Certified :-). Being into the consulting company, it took me around 6-7 months to clear the exam (both part 1 & 2) because of time constrain. Anyways, just sharing my experiences of exam:    


For Part 1: 

  • Read the TOGAF 9 documentation
  • Focus on input & output of each ADM Phases (specially Phase E & F)
  • High level knowledge of steps involved in each ADM Phases
  • Technical Reference Model
  • Repository 

Part - 2 (though it's a open book) is bit tougher than Part - 1 as it is having scenario questions.  Below are topics/section which you should focus: 
  • Read the TOGAF 9 documentation
  • Focus on input & output of each ADM Phases 
  • In-depth knowledge of steps involved in each ADM Phases
  • Artifacts (catalog, matrices & diagrams) involved in each phases(specially B,C & D)
  • Also read the mapping of security architecture with TOGAF
  • Iterative processes & guidelines

Apart from above mentioned points, you can also view the Knotion TOGAF 9 series on YouTube and view other material available on net(togaf presentations etc)
