ICAgile - Agile Fundamentals Training Course

Understand The Principles Of Agile And Scrum

Introduction

Our two-day ICAgile - Agile Fundamentals training course will help you to understand the principles of Agile and in particular, Scrum. You will work in teams to produce a piece of work over a series of sprints. In addition to understanding the rules of Scrum, the team will also appreciate how Scrum can be blended with other complementary practices such as Kanban. You will experience the value of cross-functional teams and the benefits that agile frameworks such as Scrum provide.

In order to succeed with agile, teams and organisations should focus first on “being agile” as a foundation for success in “doing agile.” ICAgile's fundamentals learning objectives delve into key concepts such as adaptive planning, value-driven development, team collaboration and frequent feedback for continuous improvement. The ICAgile - Agile Fundamentals training course also covers the history of agile, the agile manifesto, the agile principles, and some widely applied frameworks and practices.
