About this course
Are you ready to use the adaptive methodology in your organization? Take the Agile Project Management Course!
This course is intended for all project managers who would like to deliver projects using the Agile approach. While the focus of the training will be on Agile, it will also discuss the differences between Predictive, Adaptive and Hybrid approaches following the best practices and standards for Project Management.
Agile project management is a modern, flexible approach to project management. It allows you to break large projects down into more manageable tasks, which are tackled in short iterations or sprints. This enables your team to adapt to change quickly and deliver work fast.
Today, agile project management methodology is used by software developers, construction companies, educational organizations, and even marketing teams. Many organizations can benefit from using the agile project management methodology, and it’s simple to set up and utilize.
While you can take advantage of software, books, or agile coaches, each agile team is unique, and understanding the basics can help you put together an agile project methodology that works for you and your organization.
The course will also have a comprehensive discussion on the most popular Agile framework used – Scrum.
