This iSAQB® DDD training covers Domain-Driven Design for software architects and developers. Participants learn to build a Ubiquitous Language, define Bounded Contexts, and map context relationships.
The curriculum teaches strategic and tactical DDD concepts, including aggregates, entities, value objects, repositories, and domain services.
Through lectures and modeling exercises, attendees learn to translate complex business requirements into maintainable software structures and apply these patterns in architecture decisions.
What You Will Learn
The syllabus is based on iSAQB Module: DDD Version 2023.1, which consists of seven parts. A DDD training course is designed for at least 3 days.
Part 1-Domain, model, and ubiquitous language
Part 2-Knowledge Crunching: The path to the model
Part 3-From the model to implementation
Part 4-The model in the application architecture
Part 5-Strategic Design 1: Cutting and distinguishing models from one another
Part 6-Strategic Design 2: Context Mapping
Part 7-Optional: Related Topics
Certification & Exam
After successful participation in the iSAQB® DDD, Domain-Driven Design Training, you receive 20 credit points in Methodological competence and 10 credit points in Communicative competence for the CPSA-A certification. To get credit, you generally need to attend at least 75 percent of the training.
To get the full CPSA-A certificate, you also need a passed CPSA-F certificate, at least three years of full-time professional experience in IT, a total of 70 credit points covering all three competence areas, and the successful CPSA-A certification task including an interview. You can find details in the official iSAQB® information on the DDD module.
What You Will Achieve
Analyze business domains using Domain-Driven Design methods, for example through discussions with domain experts, Event Storming, and targeted modeling questions.
Develop a common language that clearly describes domain terms, rules, and processes, and serves as a basis for architecture, code, and team communication.
Model Bounded Contexts and Context Maps to make domain boundaries, dependencies, and integration relationships between system parts visible.
Apply tactical DDD patterns like Entities, Value Objects, Aggregates, Repositories, and Domain Events to concrete business requirements.
Evaluate architectural decisions based on domain complexity, team structure, coupling, and maintainability.
Create clear models that business, development, and architecture can use as a shared basis for work.
Prepare specifically for the iSAQB® DDD exam by classifying central terms, patterns, and typical questions.
