Agile Fundamentals
Take the first step on your Agile journey. Building a strong knowledge base and understanding of Agile frameworks starts by shifting your mindset.
Originally starting as a set of management practices focused on software development, Agile frameworks are now being applied across all functions and teams of organisations. This rapid expansion and appreciation comes down to one thing: Agile frameworks and practices are the best way for organisations to leverage and master continuous change. Agile will allow you and your organisation to thrive in a business world that is constantly shifting in complexity and change.
This introductory Agile course teaches participants about the Agile mindset, values, principles, and foundational concepts. The content works toward achieving organisational agility without specific focus on any single Agile methodology or framework (i.e. Scrum, Kanban, XP, DSDM, SAFe, etc).
Is this course right for you?
This course is designed to provide foundational knowledge to those new to the Agile world at all career levels, as well as support practitioners who recognise the need to focus on “being” Agile in addition to “doing” Agile.
