Start your software projects with the greatest foundation for success, then continue to maximize value throughout the project to delivery. Master the art of agile planning!
Based on Jim's popular book, "The Art of Agile Development", and co-taught with industry veteran Diana Larsen (chair of the Agile Alliance board and co-author of the acclaimed "Agile Retrospectives: Making Good Teams Great!"), this instructor-led training course gives you the hands-on experience and skill-building you need to understand and apply fundamentals of agile planning and to accelerate your adoption and practice of agile development.
Jim and Diana bring their deep subject matter expertise in agile planning and development to lead you through a balance of content introduction, instruction, and skill-based practice to reinforce learning and application.
