Agile Project Management Foundation and Practitioner Training Course

Overview

This course covers the certification developed by APMG and the Agile Business Consortium to provide an agile approach to project management, called AgilePM®.

The course is equally divided between the theory of the new wave of agile project management and the practical experience of the techniques and disciplines involved.

The AgilePM® Combined course blends our Foundation course and Practitioner seminar. Each participant is first provided with a solid Foundation in AgilePM® concepts, and is then advanced to a Practitioner understanding of how to apply AgilePM® guidance in practice.
