Overview of this AgilePM® Foundation Course
What you will learn
Agile is a project management method whereby the project is undertaken incrementally, making it easier to determine what the changes and risks will be and thus making it easier to deal with them if and when they do arise. Each aspect of the project is revised at certain, predetermined times. This will ensure that, if a problem or obstacle arises, the situation can be rectified and, if necessary, the project can be steered in a different direction.
The Agile Foundation course is the first level of training in the Agile method. It teaches students the fundamentals of the Agile method and gives them the ability to apply the method to projects in a practical situation.
