AI architecture training for enterprise software architects, solution architects and technology leaders For software architects, solution architects and senior technology professionals, the challenge is no longer simply understanding AI as a concept. It is knowing how to design AI-enabled systems that are secure, scalable, resilient, governed and aligned to real business needs. The Iasa AI Architecture Master Class is a four-day, in-person AI architecture course in Dublin for experienced software architects, solution architects and senior technology professionals who need to design governed, secure and scalable AI-enabled systems. The course explores the principles, patterns, tools and practices needed to move from traditional software and solution architecture into the emerging world of artificial intelligence architecture. Rather than focusing on coding, participants will examine key areas including AI foundations, prompt engineering, AI software architecture, LLMOps, AI governance, agentic AI, MCP, A2A, data management and quality attributes. The programme also uses case study work, facilitated discussion and applied architecture exercises to help learners connect the theory to real project environments. Developed by architects, with architects and for architects, this course supports professionals who want to build AI-first architectural thinking and progress towards the globally recognised CITA-A Certified IT Architect certification pathway. This Technology Ireland ICT Skillnet programme is cofunded by the Government of Ireland and the European Union.
