A 24-hour course with iSAQB®-accredited trainers, online or in the classroom in Rome, to learn how to make architectural decisions that stay valid over time and to prepare for the CPSA-Foundation exam.
No. The course prepares you for the CPSA-Foundation exam, which is taken separately with an iSAQB®-authorised body. On the last day we run a mock exam with discussion and correction.
The CPSA-F exam fee (€280 + VAT) is not included in the course price: you pay it to the iSAQB®-authorised certification body, with which you arrange the exam yourself after the course.
No. You need at least 18 months of software development experience, not as an architect: the course starts from the basics of the role. It is designed for senior developers, Tech Leads, IT consultants and technically-minded project managers. If you are unsure about the level, write to us.
CPSA-F is the Foundation Level of the international iSAQB® Certified Professional for Software Architecture programme. It attests basic knowledge of software architecture and is earned by passing an exam that is separate from the course. It is the first level of the iSAQB® path and the starting point for the advanced levels.
The course lasts 24 hours. It runs over three consecutive days or in the weekend format, spread over several Saturdays and Sundays: the dates of each edition are shown in the calendar.
Each edition runs online, in a live virtual classroom on Zoom, or in the classroom in Rome. The format and language of each edition are shown on the course page.
In-person editions are held in Rome, at Via Venti Settembre 118 (Palazzo Gentiloni, first floor), a few minutes' walk from Roma Termini station and Metro Line A (Repubblica stop). The venue is Roma Office Sharing, with rooms equipped with a screen and videoconferencing and a buffet area for coffee.
The price is per person, excluding VAT, shown on each edition's page, and may include an early-bird discount. If you enrol personally, without a VAT number, a dedicated rate applies and is shown in the summary before payment. A discount code replaces the early bird and cannot be combined with other promotions.
Of course. During registration you choose who is invoiced (private individual, freelancer, Italian or foreign company) and enter VAT number, SDI code and PEC.
If the course is not held because the minimum number of participants is not reached, the fee paid is refunded (alternatively you can choose another date). For other needs, such as replacing a participant, use the contact form.
