How it Works

 

Step 1: Confirm University Interest and Qualifications

University and Business Architecture Guild® confirm the university’s interest and qualifications per the criteria stated above.

Step 2: Establish University / Business Architecture Guild® Relationship

University and Business Architecture Guild® establish goals and sign a Memorandum of Understanding to define and formalize how the organizations will work together and provide mutual benefit.

Step 3: Incorporate Content into Curriculum

University and Business Architecture Guild® work together to identify BIZBOK® Guide and other content to include within university curriculum. For example, students may access a version of the BIZBOK® Guide for the period of their semester. The Business Architecture Guild® can guide universities on how to interpret, align with and use content as needed. A periodic review is conducted to identify ways to enhance the process and content provided.

Step 4: Partner on Opportunities

University and Business Architecture Guild® establish a regular checkpoint to coordinate on bi-directional advisory as well as identify and pursue other partnership opportunities as defined in Step 2. University may participate in additional Guild Academic Program activities and groups as they are established, such as an Academic Advisory Council.
