E-Government Interoperability Frameworks

Why government systems can't talk to each other - and the standards, architectures, and governance that fix it: the Once-Only Principle, X-Road, base registries, and API-first design.

About this course

Citizens submit the same document to three different ministries because those ministries' systems cannot share data. This course teaches the interoperability vocabulary that solves this - technical, semantic, and organisational interoperability, the Once-Only Principle, federated data-exchange architectures like Estonia's X-Road model, base registries, and the governance bodies that make cross-agency data sharing both possible and accountable. Completing all modules earns a Mafichoni certificate of completion. Planning a whole-of-government interoperability programme? Mafichoni's governance team advises ministries on interoperability architecture and governance - book a discovery call.
