The available Product Standards for registration are dependent on your role are summarized below:

For information on the steps necessary to get certified within the Web Certification system please refer to the Getting Started documentation.

Individuals

As noted above, you can enter the system in a number of roles. The minimal role is as an individual not designated as a contact for a company accepted into the TOGAF certification program. For this you simply need a valid username and password on the Certification Authority's web server. This is for those individuals who have taken the examination and need to complete their certification by accepting the logo usage agreement. Usernames and passwords are assigned and notified upon receipt of the pass result from Prometric.

Once you have your username, from the secure web site, select "Login" to login.

Registering Contacts for a Company

To register products, services or individuals on behalf of a company, you must be registered as the designated Authorized, Technical or Alternate contact for that company. Company registration and that of its designated contacts have a number of steps that must be completed before you will be able to proceed. Your login will not offer you the full range of Product Standards until all the following steps have been successfully completed.

Please take the following steps to register your company and its contacts:-

1. You will need a username and password on the Certification Authority's web server for identification purposes. If you don't yet have an account, you may obtain one from the certification web site by selecting "Enter secure site" to enter the secure web site (if you have not already done so), then selecting "New User" to create your username and password.
2. Next you will need to enter your company name and accept the terms and conditions of the Certification program, by accepting the Certification Agreement, for entry into the system. To do this you need to select New Company Account.
3. To register your company, you need to provide information about your company and specify the name and contact information for the following contacts:
   • The Authorized Signatory who will authorize your company's registration. The Authorized Signatory must be someone who is authorized to enter into legal commitments on behalf of the company.
   • The Technical Contact, who will be the primary contact for all certification-related issues.
   • An optional Alternate Contact, who will be the back-up for the Technical Contact and also have access to the web certification system to register products
   • The Financial Contact, who will be the contact for any payment and/or invoicing issues
   • An optional Marketing Contact, who will be the contact for any marketing-related certification issues

   Note: The Authorized Contact, the Technical Contact and the Alternate Contact, if specified, are the only users who will have the ability to register products or services using the web certification system.

4. The web based certification system will then send electronic mail to your designated Authorized Signatory who must respond by electronic mail to the Certification Authority. The CA will audit the response and, if the requirements are met, accept your organization for entry into the certification system.

When the above is completed and the Certification Authority has responded to your designated Authorized Signatory with notification that your application has been accepted, your Technical and Alternate contacts will receive confirmation by electronic mail from the web certification system that your company account has been activated. At this point, your Technical and Alternate contacts will be able to progress to the next stage which is accessing the web certification system to complete Product Registration.

If you encounter difficulties with the login please contact the Certification Authority.
