About the Course

Agile has taken off in the past couple years as organisations grapple with the frustrations of traditional project management approaches and the need to find ways to increase successful project delivery.

The Agile Project Management (AgilePM®) certification is aimed at those working in a projectfocused environment who are looking for a leaner, structured approach that enables them to respond far more quickly to change and that is conducive to rapid implementation of high-priority initiatives.

Accredited by APMG and based on the proven fundamentals within DSDM Atern (see below), the certification provides the ability to deliver Agile Projects in organisations requiring standards, rigour and visibility around Project Management, while at the same time enabling the fast pace, change and empowerment provided by Agile.

This course will:

  • Explain how to lay the foundations for successful Agile projects
  • Explain how an Agile project is managed
  • Clarify the different management styles needed for successful Agile projects (compared to “traditional” projects)
  • Provide integration with PRINCE2®.

Who Will Benefit

The course is aimed at Project Managers and others involved in Project Management who want to understand how to apply Agile approaches within an overall Project Management Lifecycle framework.
