Introduction

Acquire useful tools for successful projects

We have made agile project management work on a large scale and would like to teach you what it takes to succeed with agile projects. We can teach you and prepare you to take the internationally recognised certifications developed and administrated by DSDM in the UK. Everyone is eligible for the certification at foundation level “Agile Foundation”, and those with 6 months or more of agile management experience can sign up for the certification course on practitioner-level “Agile Advanced Practitioner”. This course includes Agile Foundation. Contact us if you are interested in the Agile Advanced Practitioner course.

This intensive course provides you with a number of specific tools to get started with successful agile projects. It also touches on approaches and management styles that work.

The course is designed to activate all four learning forms: Theory, case studies, project work and reflection. This variety of learning forms leads to effective learning in practice.

TARGET GROUP

Project managers, Scrum Masters, Product Owners, project participants and others who are curious to learn more about successful agile projects.
