About this Event
Description
Are you ready to embark on a transformative Agile journey that will take your skills to the next level? Join us for our comprehensive virtual Agile Fundamentals training courses. They are designed to fit into your schedule with four 3.5 hour days of learning.
Our Agile Fundamentals (ICP) course is an industry-recognized credential that demonstrates an understanding of the Agile mindset, values, principles, and foundational concepts. Professionals are grounded in what it means to “be Agile while doing Agile” and achieve organizational agility without specific focus on any single Agile methodology or framework (i.e., Scrum, Kanban, XP, DSDM, SAFe, etc.)
You’ll receive an email prior to class with the Zoom link and a few things needed before the class. Please be prepared to have you camera on during all of the training (don’t be shy, you’ll look great!). 🙂
