Accredited training consists of 3 core modules which can be delivered independently (SFIA ‘foundation’ level, SFIA Practitioner, and SFIA Consultant) or combined (sometimes referred to as the Understanding SFIA training or the Introduction to SFIA course). An accredited SFIA Assessor training module is now also available.
The foundation-level training is focused on the structure, language, and a high-level overview of how SFIA is used. It does not include hands-on practical use of SFIA, as this is covered at other levels. As a result, training at foundation-level could lend itself to different forms of delivery which don’t necessarily have to include an instructor-led approach.
Understand the underlying idea of SFIA – what it is and what it is not; Understand the structure of SFIA – including Categories and Subcategories.
