Course Overview

This course prepares all members of an Agile team for the realities of working in a highly collaborative and effective software development environment. Over the course of an intense three-days, Agile Mastery provides the breadth and depth of knowledge team members need to begin working in short iterations to produce working software incrementally. Using hands-on exercises, participants learn how to write effective user stories, estimate in relative units, track velocity and plan releases, create and interpret a variety of information radiators, participate in daily stand-ups, and much, much more. Toward the end of the course, participants learn to recognize and correct problems that may arise when making the transition to an Agile process.
