PMI-ACP®

Introduction to Agile Project Mgt and the PMI-ACP Exam (1 of 11)

This course is the initial course in an overall learning path designed to prepare someone to achieve the PMI-ACP® certification, and develop into a high-impact Agile Project Management role. This course is part of the PMI-ACP® Agile Project Management series.

This course will provide a foundation for the rest of the PMI-ACP® learning path and will enable students to see "Agile" and what is commonly called "Waterfall" in a fresh new perspective: as complementary approaches rather than competitive. They will begin to learn to develop an adaptive approach to project management that blends the two approaches together in the right proportions to fit any situation. This course is part of the PMI-ACP® Agile Project Management series.
