    Become an Agile project manager with in-depth knowledge of agile principles

    The world of project management has changed significantly over recent years. Until recently, much of the corporate world predominantly used traditional, sequential, “waterfall” approaches for projects. Far too many projects were failing, for a variety of reasons, but mainly because projects were just too big and too long. Communication and business engagement were poor and progress was measured in percentage complete, rather than business value delivered.

    Agile project management offers a practical and repeatable methodology that achieves an ideal balance between the standards, rigour and visibility required for good project management. The focus is on developing solutions incrementally enabling project teams to react effectively to changing requirements, whilst empowering project personnel and encouraging increased collaboration and ownership.


    Who is it for?

    This Agile Project Management ELCAS funded qualification is perfect for those requiring a widely recognised route into project management. The foundation part of the course focuses on an understanding of the method, while the practitioner course also includes the application of the agile method. Its an ideal qualification to choose for your ELCAS funded resettlement especially if you can include your military experience. It is worthwhile considering bundling Agile Project Management with PRINCE2, APM FFQ, APM PMQ or Change Management to make the most of your ELCAS funding.
