Details

Agile is a flexible and iterative project management approach focusing on delivering value quickly by breaking projects into smaller, manageable tasks. It emphasizes collaboration, continuous feedback, and the ability to adapt to changes, ensuring that the final product aligns closely with customer needs.

Agile helps teams stay responsive to shifting business requirements, speeds up delivery times, and promotes efficiency by encouraging regular reviews and adjustments throughout the project lifecycle. This results in higher customer satisfaction and a more dynamic way of managing projects in today’s fast-paced business environment.

 

This 1-day workshop in Agile Project Management focuses on key concepts, practices, and tools that provide participants with a foundational understanding of Agile and how it can be applied in projects.

  2. If you have fewer delegates and cannot pay for 6, we can negotiate a shortened course where some of the time will be spent in blended learning - watching videos and doing tutorials and exercises with some contact time with the trainer. We would want to discuss what your core needs are so that we cover those aspects. You need to have paid for 3 delegates at least.
