Assessment

AIIHE uses a variety of assessment tools to guide and assess each student’s achievement of the subject learning outcomes. In this subject, students undertake portfolio students will compile a portfolio that includes their work on practical exercises, class discussions, and smaller projects related to enterprise architecture, case study analysis (individual), and students will work in groups to design a new or improved comprehensive enterprise architecture for a fictional organisation using a chosen framework and present their work in class. These tasks assess the knowledge, applied skills, critical analysis, communication and collaborative capabilities relevant to the subject.
