Overview
2 days
This work-driven workshop helps you master the skills in applying agile and iterative methods, including Scrum – the most popular agile method worldwide - focusing on estimation and planning, two practices sometimes forgotten by novices. It is suitable for large or small projects, and is aimed at people who need to master the core management practices to succeed with agile methods.
This workshop covers the key management concepts of agile methods. You will learn estimation and planning. The time involves many hands-on exercises and simulation games aimed at helping you master these skills.
You will leave with the confidence knowing you can do, based on practice, many of the key practices in agile management. And you will be grounded in the core agile values and principles that guide these practices.
