I thoroughly enjoyed learning the foundation of Business Architecture through this course. The mentor of the course "Navid Kheradmand"  made it really easy to comprehend the fundamentals of how a business architecture is created and what it entails. Case guide and the examples in different sections clearly helped to picture how the concepts are put to use. I am glad I have taken this course that has set me up for my next steps in the journey. Thank you Archist and Navid!
