Course Overview:

This is an intensive 2-day instructor-led workshop for students who have an elementary understanding of the terms in agile but no experience. This is a directly hands on class with many examples and exercises. The objective of the class is to apply learnings directly into the workplace for a beginning agile team.

The topics of funding, portfolio management, and after-implementation maintenance will be included.
