Architecture is learned by building it.
We run accredited iSAQB training for software architects: CPSA-Foundation and the Advanced modules, taught by architects who still design and ship the systems they talk about.

How we teach
We teach for the work, not just for the exam.
A course built around exam questions gets people through the exam and no further. Ours runs the other way round. Most of the time goes into design problems: you make the calls, argue the trade-offs out loud, and write the decisions down the way the syllabus asks.
Trainers who still build systems
Everyone who teaches here designs production architecture outside the classroom. When an exercise turns into a real argument about trade-offs, that is the person you want in the room.

Accreditation
What our accreditation means for you.
Albion has been an accredited iSAQB training partner since 2003. Accreditation is not a badge we hand ourselves. iSAQB audits the syllabus, the trainers and the exam process, and repeats that audit.
- Foundation
The official syllabus
You are taught against the official syllabus, the same one your exam is written from.
- Advanced modulesCredit pointsTechnical, Methodical, and Communicative
Credit points toward CPSA-A
Every Advanced module you pass adds credit points toward CPSA-A, counted by iSAQB rather than by us.
- Certification
The iSAQB name
Your certificate carries the iSAQB name, so it means the same to your next employer as to your current one.
By the numbers

What people say after the training
There was no shying away from discussing even complex matters in proper depth. Some trainers tend to move on to the next topic as quickly as possible at that point. That was not the case here.

Where we are
Based in Germany. Every course live.
Bad Reichenhall is where the company is registered. Courses run live online or at your site, so the address matters less than the dates.
Where to start
Foundation first, then the modules that fit.
If CPSA is new to you, start at Foundation. If you already hold it, pick the Advanced modules that match the work you do. If the training is for a whole team, we run the same course for you alone.
