TESTIMONIALS

Tania Loughran Lead Business Analyst Colt Technology Services UK

Kiran was a friendly and knowledgeable trainer who brought lots of experience to our TOGAF practitioner training, which helped with achieving accreditation and gaining good background information on the course, thanks!

Bhargava Raju Associate Consultant Cognizant Hyderabad

Kiran Divakaran has immense experience in the areas of architecture his lectures speak volumes of that and is adept in understanding the psyche of the trainee and greatly can acclimatize it to trainee needs. He creates an astounding environment for learning. He has been instrumental in shaping me to be an aspiring architect given a short span of time. He is one of the person with whom I would like to have an association with.
The best part of the course was the details on the ADM, ADM guidelines and techniques, architecture, content Metamodel and enterprise continuum. Some great candid examples were used in understanding these concepts which I believe will establish me as an accomplished architect. The courseware was rich in articulating the most abstract concepts in an easy to understand way. 

Girish Adat Senior Software Architect SunTec Trivandrum

The training was supported by the solid professional background of Kiran. All the examples and explanations were also showing the same. Unlike a regular “teaching” oriented usual training we can get from anywhere, the knowledge of an enterprise architect is really worthy during the sessions. He has got a satisfying answers for any of our questions. The answers shows his solid knowledge and experience for more than a decade.

Padmanabhan S Senior Architect SunTec Trivandrum

“…the knowledge of a traveller exceeds that which is got by reading”. In every way, this is true for sessions by Kiran; which proves how a normal theory ‘class room’ is different from we having a ‘discussion’ with an Enterprise Architect (by profession) with a solid 2 decades field experience. Power packed by his experience; the way he delivers the subject is inspiring and a great value add to us. He handles the sessions excellently both professionally and personally. All the best Kiran!

Shyam Popuri Senior Solution Architect WasteManagement Inc Texas

Kiran is an excellent speaker and trainer. He articulates the content very well for the students to understand. He is very patient, goes out of his way to explain various real life business scenario wherever possible. He makes sure that his students are well trained and satisfied with his answers. The best part of TOGAF  course was the details on the ADM, ADM guidelines and techniques, Content meta-model and Enterprise Continuum. He made the course look very easy to understand with great examples. It was great to learn TOGAF  from him. I wish him all the best and surely go-back to him for any training needs in future.
