Course Overview

The BIAN Banking: Service Landscape & Semantic APIs course by Koenig Original is designed for enterprise architects, solution designers, and integration specialists seeking to master the BIAN framework for modern banking transformation. This program prepares participants for the official BIAN Foundation certification exam administered by Van Haren Learning Solutions, a mandatory prerequisite for advanced BIAN Practitioner tracks. Targeted at professionals involved in digital transformation within financial services, the course equips learners with the standardized language and architectural blueprints needed to decompose monolithic banking systems into interoperable service domains. With over 70 global financial institutions actively adopting BIAN standards to reduce integration costs by up to 40%, this training addresses a critical industry demand for skilled practitioners who can align business capabilities with technical implementation using semantic APIs.

Participants engage with core BIAN tools including the BIAN Portal, API Align, Business Scenario Designer, and Application Landscape Mapper, alongside industry-standard platforms such as Swagger/OpenAPI, GitHub for API definitions, and Red Hat OpenShift for containerized deployment. The hands-on lab environment simulates real-world implementation scenarios where students configure a service domain using BIAN’s Semantic API specifications, generate machine-readable Swagger files, and map legacy banking functions to the BIAN Service Landscape. A key project involves modeling a customer onboarding workflow by connecting multiple service domains—such as Customer Agreement, Product Eligibility, and Account Servicing—using first-order connections and event-driven interactions, all validated through a CI/CD pipeline integrated with API gateways and service meshes.

This course directly supports career advancement by preparing attendees for the globally recognized BIAN Foundation certification, which validates expertise in creating modular, future-ready banking architectures. Certified professionals report salary increases of up to 25% in architecture and integration roles, particularly in banks undergoing coreless bank transformations. As a Koenig Original program, it offers exclusive access to Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling and 1-on-1 instructor support, ensuring personalized guidance through complex concepts like behavior qualifiers, control records, and information profiles. Graduates emerge ready to lead API standardization initiatives, drive down technical debt, and position themselves as key contributors in next-generation banking ecosystems that prioritize interoperability and agile service delivery.
