Agile is a project management methodology that uses short development cycles called sprints to focus on continuous improvement in the development of a product or service. Organizations with an Agile mindset have a distinct advantage in this rapidly changing world. They shorten time to market, improve product quality and create more value for customers.
This course is designed to teach students to identify and manage products that are suited for the Agile approach.
