This course is specifically designed to give a strong agile foundation to project leads transitioning to an agile development methodology.
Students will be immersed in key driving principles, which enables them to understand why agile works, not just the principles of how it works. All of this is critical if organisations are going to get the most out of their agile transition.
Scrum Masters walk away from this course with a much deeper understanding of agile, including specifics of iteration processes, building quality into every release, creating stories and putting together an effective agile team.
