The purpose of this highly immersive, two-day course is to help students to understand the principles of Agile and in particular, Kanban. They will work in teams to undertake a backlog of work over a series of iterations. In addition to understanding the rules of Kanban, the team will also appreciate how Kanban can be blended with other complementary practices such as Scrum. Students will experience the value of cross-functional teams and the benefits that Agile frameworks such as Kanban provide.

This course is suitable for anyone with no prior knowledge of Agile who is considering, evaluating or involved in a move towards working in (or with) an agile team.

Formerly known as Union of South Africa, now officially known as Republic of South Africa is the Southernmost country in Africa. South Africa's population is over 60 million people, which makes the country the world's 23rd-most populous nation. South Africa has three capital cities: executive Pretoria, judicial Bloemfontein and legislative Cape Town, while the largest city is Johannesburg. The official languages of South Africa are Afrikaans, English, Ndebele, Pedi, Sotho, Swati, Tsonga, Tswana, Venda, Xhosa and Zulu.

South Africa can be rainy from November to February, so the best time to visit South Africa is from May to September.
