Scaling Agile Certification course

The Scaling Agile course presents a comprehensive and proven set of events, artifacts, practices, and techniques, primarily aimed at scaling agile from a single team to:

  • First, large projects with multiple teams working on different parts of the same product

  • Second, programs with multiple teams working on related products

  • Finally, the corporate level with multiple agile teams working across several products

The Scaling Agile course also prepares participants for the European Certified Scaled Agile Master (EC-SM®) certification. This certification tests and validates both your knowledge and experience in scaling agile. Successfully passing the exam earns you a certificate demonstrating your ability to apply agile principles and practices at the program, organizational, or large project level.

Furthermore, our Scaling Agile course covers different approaches to scaled agile. It introduces the main practices, events, and artifacts of agile frameworks at scale. The course also recreates many practical scenarios, allowing participants to gain hands-on experience that will facilitate applying these practices in their own organizations.

What is Scaling Agile or Scaled Agile?

Scaled Agile is the ability to apply agile at the team level while also implementing the same principles, practices, and outcomes at other levels of the organization. This need emerged as more and more teams adopted agile or hybrid approaches to manage their projects. As a result, organizations began seeing highly positive results. Consequently, many organizations started applying the same approaches at other levels of the organization.

The Scaling Agile training is therefore the best choice for professionals seeking to expand their knowledge of agile practices in a scaled environment.

Course Formats

The Scaling Agile course is available online (virtual) as well as in-person in Lisbon and Porto. If none of the scheduled sessions fit your needs, or if you prefer a dedicated corporate training, please contact us to arrange a customized session.
