Certification Program	TOGAF Certified by The Open Group
Specification	TOGAF 8 CORE DEFINITION
Location in Spec	5.2
Problem Summary	The TOGAF 8 TRAINING Conformance Statement, which shows the syllabus required of the course based on the Core Definition, is constraining training providers to provide attendees with out-of-date information.
Problem Description [CSC template]	In the core definition and hence in the CSQ, at 5.2 Examples, the requirement is to provide examples of other Architecture Frameworks referenced in TOGAF (for example, C4ISR, Enterprise Architecture Planning, Zachman Framework, etc.). The references in TOGAF are fixed in time at the release date of the TOGAF 8.1 documentation. However, the Frameworks continue to evolve and to be superseded in a way beyond the control of The Open Group. Training providers should be permitted to update the material in their courses without endangering the course's certification. The wording "Examples of other Architecture Frameworks referenced in TOGAF" should be replaced by "Examples of other Architecture Frameworks referenced in TOGAF, or if desired by the training provider, examples based on the derivatives, or successors, of the Architecture Frameworks referenced in TOGAF."
