Testimonials
It was truly one of the most enjoyable courses/certifications I have completed. Our company is 'transforming' to agile and this training has truly benefited me and my career tremendously.
I really learnt a lot - it was an eye-opener to see how projects can be run in an agile manner. The content covered is very relevant and therefore valuable in my current environment.
It has given me professional confidence for how to structure and deliver Agile projects at a deeper level. Personally, it helped me gain confidence to apply for a new role outside of my comfort zone knowing I had demonstrable knowledge and skills.
Easy to understand and a great foundation for anyone starting out or involved with agile projects.
Fantastic course, great content and able to use what I've learned immediately.
Helped me to learn and identify the best possible ways to deliver a project in any complex environment.
