Citizen Developer Business Architect (CDBA)

Citizen Developer Business Architect (CDBA) develops practical capability in citizen development strategy, business architecture, operating models, governance, organizational alignment, value, risk, capability, maturity, platform enablement, and scaling.

The course progresses through Citizen Development Strategy, CDBA Role, Value, and Business Architecture; Operating Model, Roles, Platforms, Enablement, and Delivery Services; Governance, Risk, Security, Compliance, Alignment, and Change; Maturity, Metrics, Scaling, Community, Roadmap, and Improvement. Each lesson connects PMI concepts with decisions, artifacts, stakeholder responsibilities, validation, and professional practice.

Learners work through a business architect establishing a governed citizen-development program across multiple departments and produce a practical citizen-development strategy, operating model, governance framework, capability map, maturity assessment, and scaling roadmap for implementation, review, exam preparation, and operational use.
