In the second section you will learn the basics of an enterprise architecture modelling language. For example about the metamodel and the concepts that are present in a modelling language for enterprise modelling.

In the third section we discuss various viewpoints that are used to divide your model in layers and aspects and how to create connections between the layers. For every layer and aspect you will do an assignment.
