Introduction

Agile project management is a methodology that emphasizes flexibility, adaptability, and collaboration. It is an alternative to traditional project management methods, which are often seen as rigid and bureaucratic. Agile project management is based on a set of principles and values that prioritize customer satisfaction, continuous delivery of value, and collaboration between team members. Agile is widely used in software development, but its principles can be applied to many other industries as well.

Participants will learn about the Agile framework, including its various methodologies, such as Scrum, Kanban, and Lean.
