Agile Projects
What is Agile Project Management?
Agile project management is a paradigm that focuses on leveraging the advantages of a project’s unpredictability and complexity. Instead of making long-term plans and estimates, it recognises that the world is changeable, and new information will be discovered as the process unfolds, leading to better insights.
It aims to exploit the natural progression of the project, working instead from a flexible approach with many small iterations / project sprints at short time intervals, where the project is evaluated and adjusted continuously. In this way, any potential errors can be eliminated early in the process, and frequent and effective delivery can yield ongoing benefits.
This project form is particularly beneficial for projects where the complexity is so high that the solution cannot be anticipated beforehand. Agile project management is also characterised by close cooperation between the project’s team members and the client.
Sprint your way to success in your projects with an agile project management course.
In our Agile Project Management course, you’ll learn the basic principles of the Agile approach, as well as the benefits and application possibilities these methods offer.
We provide a thorough introduction to both theory and practice, adequately equipping you to structure and organise your next agile project. We cover aspects such as data collection, customer wishes and needs, specification workshops, planning the production process (both as a whole and individual sprints/iterations).
By dividing your project into smaller stages / sprints, you’ll be able to respond quickly to any changes that may arise. This flexibility is precisely one of the significant benefits of agile project management.
Another advantage is the close cooperation between team members and the client, where you can swiftly adapt to changes in your project’s requirements and circumstances. This means you and your team can deliver results quickly and continuously while ensuring that the project stays on course.
The course is relevant for you and your business.
If you’re a project manager, team leader, project participant, or otherwise involved in the planning and development of projects for your company.
Agile project management often leads to a more motivated and engaged team, as it involves team members in the planning process and gives them greater influence over the project’s direction.
The Agile method originated in the IT industry but is now relevant in all industries, whether it’s software development or the production of physical products.
Content of the course
The course is held as physical classroom teaching over three days.
The teaching will consist of a review of theory combined with class discussions, practical exercises, and cases that relate to your field of expertise and daily work. The teaching is very practice-oriented and designed to follow the natural course of a project.
