The Course

Through this two day workshop-style course, you’ll delve into the heart of key Agile techniques and procedures, distinguishing between traditional and Agile project management frameworks. You’ll discover how to generate superior business value using Agile techniques and understand why these innovative approaches are being embraced by workplaces globally. You’ll also gain a robust understanding of the Scrum Master’s role, as well as the roles and structure of Agile teams.

Our interactive workshop is peppered with a variety of exercises, allowing you to experience the Scrum process firsthand, apply pivotal techniques, and learn unconventional methods of project planning and estimation. You’ll also explore how to manage product documentation, reporting, and monitoring effectively.

You’ll learn how to assemble an Agile team, boost its performance, and monitor its dynamics. You’ll also discover how to adapt to and welcome change while maintaining control over quality. By merging practice and theory, you’ll see when to utilise Scrum, the pros and cons of Agile approaches, and the role and responsibilities of an Agile team.
