This agile project management training course will help you gain the fundamental skills needed to be a successful agile project manager.
Become a certified AgilePM® project manager
The Agile Project Management (AgilePM) certification aims to address the professional development needs of those working in a project-focused environment who want to be agile.
Employees who can improve their work processes by applying agile practices are more valuable to employers. So if you’re a scrum master, project manager, or team member who wants to stand out in a team environment, this training course is for you.
Aside from becoming a certified project management professional, this training course will teach you to:
Agile projects are characterised by highly self-empowered teams delivering products incrementally, focusing on the early delivery of tangible benefits to the business. Unlike more traditional approaches, agile projects fix time, cost and quality at the early phases of the project and manage contingency by developing a clear view of priorities in collaboration with the business.
Based on the proven fundamentals within DSDM, the AgilePM certification lives up to its name by providing users of the method with the core agile principles needed to facilitate a successful project whilst allowing a degree of scope and agility that not many other methodologies provide.
