Overview
TOGAF Combined exams include both Part 1 and Part 2 in a single session. If you pass one part but fail the other, you do not need to retake the entire Combined exam. Instead, you only need to retake the single part you did not pass. This article explains how to determine which exam to take next and how your results are combined.
Which Exam Should I Take to Complete Certification?
If you fail one section of a Combined exam, you must retake only the part you failed.
If You Failed Part 1
You must take the single Part 1 exam for your program.
Examples include (depending on the TOGAF version):
- TOGAF 9 Certified: OG0‑091 (Part 1)
- TOGAF Enterprise Architecture Practitioner: OGEA-101 (Part 1)
If You Failed Part 2
You must take the single Part 2 exam for your program.
Examples include:
- TOGAF 9 Certified: OG0‑092 (Part 2)
- TOGAF Enterprise Architecture Practitioner: OGEA-102 (Part 2)
How Your Results Are Combined
When The Open Group receives a passing result for the missing part, it will be automatically matched with your earlier passing result from the Combined exam.
Once both parts are passed:
- Your certification status will be updated
- You will be awarded the full certification level (e.g., TOGAF 9 Certified, TOGAF EA Practitioner, etc.)
There is no need to retake the part you already passed.
Summary
- You only need to retake the part you failed, not the entire Combined exam
- Take the standalone Part 1 or Part 2 exam as appropriate
- The Open Group will merge your results to award full certification once both parts are passed
