Format: On-site and Online Training

Duration:3 days (according to the iSAQB curriculum) or 4 days (including extended fundamentals)

Directly to the Dates
Software Architecture for AI Systems – practical, compact, and actionable.

This training combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on exercises and real-world case studies. Participants learn how to design data-driven architectures that meet the highest standards of compliance and quality.
After completing the training, you will be well-prepared to implement AI projects successfully – from the first idea to integration into productive systems.

This course is aimed at professionals who want to efficiently integrate AI solutions into existing IT landscapes while focusing on scalability, security, and maintainability.

What to Expect?

In the SWARC4AI training, you will gain practical knowledge and tools for developing scalable software architectures for AI. You will learn how to combine Machine Learning, Generative AI, and classical approaches to create hybrid, future-ready systems.
The focus lies on integrating AI into existing IT environments while maintaining scalability, security, and maintainability.

Prerequisites for Participants

3-Day Version:

➤ Solid understanding of software architecture and the design of software systems, APIs, and DevOps

➤ Strong knowledge of AI processes (machine learning, model training, MLOps, deployment, data pipelines)

4-Day Version:

➤ Basic understanding of software architecture and the design of software systems, APIs, and DevOps

➤ Basic knowledge of AI processes (machine learning, model training, MLOps, deployment, data pipelines)

Technical Requirements

No special setup is required for the training environment. Exercises are conducted using cloud- and web-based tools such as Miro, Draw.io, and platforms like Jupyter or HuggingFace.
A stable and sufficiently fast internet connection is required.

Voices from training

“The governance topics were found to be particularly helpful – an aspect that is often neglected, especially in the context of regulated environments, and was examined here in a practical way.”

Participants from Nürnberg

“The fact that the training lasted four days was perceived as a real advantage. There was a feeling that depth and practice weren’t sacrificed for speed—which can easily happen with shorter formats.”

Participants from Düsseldorf

“The content provided inspiration for rethinking development processes. The materials were also praised – structured, clear, and easily usable beyond the training.”
