Description

Agile Project Management Course is intended for all project managers. It is also for those who are familiar with the waterfall model but will need to handle projects that will use agile methodology. The course will have a comparison on Agile and Waterfall. While it will use a popular tool in project management to setup the timeline of the project.

Agile project management is a modern, flexible approach to project management. It allows you to break large projects down into more manageable tasks, which are tackled in short iterations or sprints. This enables your team to adapt to change quickly and deliver work fast.

If you’re new to this methodology, it might look at first like a complex and difficult-to-manage system. But, whether you realize it or not, you’re already doing many of the things agile project management requires. With a few tweaks, you’ll be on your way to shorter development cycles and smaller, more frequent product releases.

Today, agile project management methodology is used by software developers, construction companies, educational organizations, and even marketing teams. Many organizations can benefit from agile project management, and it’s simple to set up and utilize.

While you can take advantage of software, books, or agile coaches, each agile team is unique, and understanding the basics can help you put together an agile project methodology that works for you and your team.

It will also have a comprehensive discussion on scrum – how this is applied in project management. This will focus on delivering a product and the product backlog.

The course will  highlight the benefits of agile and when is the best time to use it. Not all projects are meant to be using rapid development.
