Agile is a Project Management framework that is used as a means for managing change. Agile employs an iterative and incremental approach to all projects that reaps rewards with better quality products and a quicker time to market. Agile empowers your teams to work in a self organised way using all the planning tools that Agile provides.

This two day course gives delegates a complete introduction to Agile using practical exercises that demonstrate the skills required to manage an Agile project. While the course gives an overview of Scrum, the emphasis of the course is on practical applications of Scrum in a business context including project (release) planning.

Delegates should have experience of working in a project team, whether or not an Agile approach was used.

Pre-Course Reading

Delegates should be familiar with the content and rationale for the rules of Scrum in the Scrum Guide, available at www.scrumguides.org

The intended audience for this course is anyone interested in working in an Agile environment. Potentially working as a Product Owner or Scrum Master or Team members - this could be Project Managers, Team Leaders, Development Managers, Testers, Developers, Business analysts etc.

This course enables the delegates to understand what the roles are in Agile, the planning and feedback that assists the Development Team to realise the project goals. It also looks at how an Agile project is managed and how an Agile team interfaces with other project and business roles.
