TEN#40: Enterprise Architecture and Technology Course Copyrights for Sale

Printable PDF Version

CONTENTS


Introduction

March 28, 2008: In the last issue of TEN [TEN#39] I announced that I will no longer present public courses on EA and SOA from Oct 2008 as I plan to retire in October. I will however continue to present inhouse courses and also provide consulting services to Information Engineering Services Pty Ltd (IES) clients.

Because of my planned retirement, we also announce in this issue that we will offer the copyrights in our Education Courses for sale by Tender to companies that provide Education and/or Consulting services in the fields of Enterprise Architecture (EA) and Technology. This copyright is currently held by Information Engineering Services Pty Ltd (IES). These courses will also be of interest to Software companies that want to offer Education and/or Consulting services in these fields. This issue of TEN provides further details of each of the courses whose copyright are offered for sale.

If you do not want to receive future TEN mailings, please email unsubscribe@ies.aust.com with “Remove” and your email address in the Subject line.

Tenth Anniversary of TEN

With this issue, we celebrate the 10th year of publication of "The Enterprise Newsletter" (TEN). From the first issue in March 1998, we have published TEN world-wide on a quarterly basis. Click here to review all past issues.

Thank you for your enthusiastic response when I asked in the last issue whether I should continue to write quarterly issues of The Enterprise newsletter (TEN). Overwhelmingly you asked me to continue with TEN, so I will keep publishing it – even when I am retired – while I feel that I can continue to make a contribution.

Course Copyrights for Sale

Because of my planned retirement in Oct 2008, we also announce in this issue that we will offer the copyrights in our Education Courses for sale by Tender to companies that provide Education and/or Consulting services in the fields of Enterprise Architecture (EA) and Technology. This copyright is currently held by Information Engineering Services Pty Ltd (IES). These courses will also be of interest to Software companies that want to offer Education and/or Consulting services in these fields. This issue of TEN provides further details of each of the courses whose copyright are offered for sale.

The courses are fully documented with PowerPoint Instructor Notes based on extracts from my 2006 book: “Enterprise Architecture for Integration: Rapid Delivery Methods and Technologies”, by Clive Finkelstein, Artech House, Norwood MA (March 2006), so they can be easily presented by experienced instructors or consultants. The Reference text for the courses is this 2006 book. The copyright also covers the courses described on the IES web site at http://www.ies.aust.com/. Click on the Courses link from any page. These courses also support Enterprise Architecture consulting projects; click on the Projects link from any page.

I have provided links below to download course descriptions in PDF for the following courses whose copyrights are offered for sale:

EA Courses:

  1. Introduction to Enterprise Architecture for Managers and IT
    - Day 1 of Courses 2 - 3 below (1 day)
  2. Rapid Delivery Workshop for Enterprise Architecture Maturity (2 days)
  3. Rapid Delivery Workshop for Enterprise Architecture Maturity (3 days)

Technology Courses:

  1. Rapid Delivery SOA Technologies for Enterprise Architecture (1 day)
  2. Enterprise Integration Technologies (2 days)
  3. Enterprise and  e-Government Portals (3 days)

EA + SOA Technology Courses:

  1. Rapid Delivery Workshop for Enterprise Architecture Maturity (4 days)

Data Modeling Courses:

  1. Data Modeling Inhouse Workshop (3 days)
  2. Tactical and Operational Modeling Inhouse Workshop (5 days)

These courses will enable Education and Consulting Services companies (and also Software companies) to offer public and inhouse education courses and consulting services based on these course materials to their relevant markets.

For companies that have ready availability of instructor and/or consulting resources to teach these courses, revenue opportunities of several million dollars are easily achievable. Some companies have already expressed interest in the purchase of the copyright to these courses.

If required by the successful purchaser, for a monthly retainer I could maintain these courses up to date as I write later editions of my book in retirement. I am also prepared to present Teach the Teachers courses for Consultants and Instructors, if required. I will ask the successful purchaser for permission to continue to use these same course materials, so I can continue to present inhouse courses to IES clients on a “non-compete” basis.

Further details will be provided in the next issue of TEN of the Return on Investment (ROI) of these courses. Read this next issue and request the Course ROI document, with its included financial details from: clive.finkelstein@ies.aust.com.

Please complete by June 30, 2008 the Tender Offer Form for Purchase of Course Copyrights - available with the Course ROI document - to register your interest. All tenders will be held in the strictest confidence.
