Standard 9.2 - Part 1 Foundation Enterprise Architect Course
>> Learn about the most recent changes to the TOGAF(R) standard version 9.2 with this best-selling training course, including English closed captions. All slides are available for download! All audio files are available for download! << Over 28,000 students bought the TOGAF(R) 9.1 version of this course. This version has been completely redone and re-recorded, based on the latest changes to the standard. If you look at the job listings, developers and architects with TOGAF experience are in high demand. You can get certified as an enterprise architect with the TOGAF 9.2 certification exam (OG0-091), and this course will teach you what you need to know! It takes training to become an Enterprise Architect. Much of that comes through on-the-job skills learned working on software projects larger-and-larger in scope. But there is a very specific way to design software at enterprise scale. The Open Group has defined a standard for this method for almost 10 years now, and over 400 companies and government agencies have been involved in crafting that standard. It is called TOGAF - The Open Group Architecture Framework. The truth is: This course helps you become certified in the TOGAF 9.2 specification. Through learning the Architecture Development Method (ADM), you will become better at designing systems. If you already architect software for a living, learning an official enterprise architecture framework such as this takes you to the next level of your career. You owe it to yourself: If you are a software developer, this is your chance to learn the proper techniques for assessing the requirements of an enterprise, and designing the right solutions for today and tomorrow! While software development is skill any teenager can acquire, and the salaries paid to software developers fall or are frozen, it's those who know the complex skills of designing large software projects that will still be in high demand. Specifically, this course will teach you: • The details of the TOGAF 9.2 Foundation exam (OG0-091), including how to book it, and my experiences taking the exam • The basic and core skills of the TOGAF framework • The Architecture Development Method (ADM), all of the phases, and the key information to know to pass the exam • Other topics covered on the exam, including Architecture Governance, Architecture Capacity, Enterprise Continuum, Capability Assessment, and reference frameworks such as TRM and III-RM This course is focused on passing the exam. In-person classes for this same exam costs $2,000 and take 2 days of intensive training. This course aims to bridge the gap between that level of in-person training, and self-study. If you've ever tried to read the TOGAF 9.2 specification or even the official study guides for the exam, you will perhaps agree that they are lengthy and hard to understand. The TOGAF 9.2 spec is 500 pages long. The official study guide is 265 pages. Both are written in that same style that many official specifications are written in - both very precise and extremely lengthy. Watching these lectures, doing the quiz questions, and following up with a reading of the relevant section of the specification will your self-study time by hours, and will give you the confidence to take the exam and get certified at Part 1! So join me: Join over 28,000 students studying for the TOGAF 9 Part 1 certification test in one of my Udemy courses! Many have taken and passed the exam after taking this course! I am confident that this course will save you many, many hours of studying time compared with just reading the 500-page spec yourself. If you are in any way not satisfied, for any reason, you can get a full refund from Udemy within 30 days. No questions asked. But I am confident you won't need to. I stand behind this course 100% and am committed to helping you pass. You won't get that commitment from a book, or from any other TOGAF class on Udemy. I am a TOGAF Certified architect, and a member of the Open Group's Architecture Forum - helping to define the standard going forward. I am using the TOGAF 9.2 specification under a commercial license. TOGAF is a registered trademark of The Open Group in the United States and other countries. SoftwareArchitect(dot)ca is a member of The Open Group Architecture Forum and holds a current, valid TOGAF(R) Commercial License. Thank you for signing up for this course on Udemy. The course will always be up-to-date here and nowhere else.

Intro to Business • HR: Payroll Fundamentals
From how to calculate earnings to determining which taxes apply and how to file them, processing payroll can be kind of confusing. In this course, we use everyday, easy-to-understand language to explain the fundamentals every person responsible for getting payroll processed should understand - whether you're the person actually doing, a small business owner overseeing someone else, or a student learning the activity. While this course uses United States information as examples, the information and principles included apply to almost every country in the world. Successful students will not only grasp how each of the different aspects of payroll process work, they will understand how (and when) those pieces come together resulting in employees receiving actual paychecks. Throughout the entire course, quizzes and actual working "homework assignments" are used to reinforce the lessons as well as help the student understand what they are grasping or needing to restudy. Some of the many areas covered in the course include: • Starting off, students learn the basic legal requirements that must be met before employees start receiving payroll, along with expectations employers should keep in mind when they work with their employees. • Next, the course delves into how gross pay is determined, whether it's hourly wages, annual salary, tips, commissions, bonuses, incentives or more. Also, the definition and expectations of Independent Contractors is covered, along with tax forms for these services. • How often are employees paid and how that affects many different steps of the entire operation. • Which payroll deductions are Mandatory according to government, versus which ones are Voluntary. How are all those different deductions calculated, collected, matched, and paid. • Several different tax form types are required to successfully process payroll each pay period and every year. MANY other lessons are included such as: • What is Unemployment Insurance and is it paid by the employee or employer? • Court-ordered Garnishments legally require an employer to withhold an employee's pay and turn it over to someone else. Understand how and why. • How does an employer process and prepare an employee's final paycheck. • Which records need to be kept and for how long.

They then apply these concepts using both straight-line and effective interest rate methods, interpreting their impact on carrying amount and interest expense. The course concludes with practical corporate examples and clear IFRS alignment, helping learners bridge theory with professional application.

The Excel worksheet presentations will include a downloadable Excel workbook with at least two tabs, one with the answer, the second with a preformatted worksheet that can be completed in a step-by-step process along with the instructional videos.

The typical format of a capital budgeting decision often includes a cash out flow a time period zero, resulting in cash inflows, or reduced outflows due to increase efficiencies, over multiple years. Because capital budgeting decisions impact cash flows for multiple years, time value of money concepts are used, including present value of one calculations and present value of annuity calculations. The primary tools used in capital budgeting decisions are the net present value calculation (NPV) and the internal rate of return calculation (IRR). Both of these tools utilize time value of money concepts, and we will spend a lot of time with them. We will also discuss the payback period calculation and the modified internal rate of return or (MIRR).

Microsoft 365 Copilot is the biggest change to office work in years. But most people only scratch the surface, because nobody ever showed them how to use it properly. This course fixes that.
