What's inside

Four courses

Understanding Agile at a Deeper Level

(2 hours)
Agile training often focuses on implementing Scrum, which can lead to ineffective implementation. This course provides a deeper understanding of the principles behind Agile/Scrum to develop a high-impact approach.

Understanding Lean and Value-driven Delivery

(1 hours)
In an Agile environment, there is a different emphasis on maximizing business value of a project led by a Product Owner and a Business Sponsor. This course prepares businesspeople to take on that leadership role.

Understanding Adaptive Planning and Agile Requirements Definition Practices

(2 hours)
An Agile process recognizes uncertainty and requires different planning and requirements definition practices in an uncertain and rapidly-changing environment.
