Hello Architects,
The International Association of Software Architects is seeking top-notch solutions and infrastructure architect candidates in the Atlanta area who are interested in pursuing the Microsoft Certified Architect (MCA) designation. An MCA Board review is tentatively scheduled in Atlanta for late July 2007.
It should be stated that this has zero to do with Microsoft related technologies. However, it was Microsoft who crafted the formula for the process and is allowing IASA to execute these certifications.
Many of the members of this list meet the MCA criteria and more importantly many of you work with other architects who can participate
as well. Please feel free to forward this request to anyone you
believe is interested in pursuing this professional designation.
MCA qualification criteria:
-Individuals that meet or exceed proficiency of the seven core
competencies: Leadership, Strategy, Communication, Tactical/Process, Technology Depth, Technology Breadth, Organization Dynamics
- Architects that know and can apply frameworks and methodologies to create and deliver an architecture through the entire IT lifecycle
- Architects that are skilled and can employ multiple technologies to solve business problems
- Can translate and deliver a technical solution to a business problem/need
- Can provide business metrics and measurements to describe the success/failure of a project
If you or anyone you know in your organization has aspired to be a certified architect please contact me ASAP.
Sincerely,
Burr
IASA Atlanta
