Agile Foundation
Training overview
Are you agile yet? This training will give you background on agile and will give you fundamental knowledge of the Scrum framework – allowing you to prepare for the Professional Scrum Master (PSM) I exam. This PSM I certificate is widely recognized as a key qualification to participate in a Scrum team. But even if you will not be ‘scrumming’, the agile principles – with their foundation in LEAN – will provide you with tools to increase your success in reaching objectives and have fun on the way too. The exam and the personal coaching are voluntary.
