BCS Agile Foundation Certificate (2-days)

Foundation Certificate in Agile training and examinations.

We combine the BCS training with our Agile Practical training to provide participants with both practical skills they can use in their workplace (see above) and a broad coverage of agile methodologies, theory and models provided by the BCS syllabus.

The BCS syllabus is designed to ensure participants have knowledge of the core agile practices, values and principles across a breadth of agile related methodologies. The BCS course modules consist of:

 The Agile Manifesto
 The rationale and benefits of agile
 Individuals and their interactions over processes and tools
 Working software over comprehensive documentation
 Customer collaboration over contract negotiations
 Responding to change over following a plan
 Common agile roles, techniques and practices
 Relevant methods and approaches for agile teams (XP, Scrum, Kanban, etc)

Number of Participants: Up to 9
