Certified Agile Essentials

Offered only as a corporate course

Certified Agile Essentials is a course that focuses on the fundamental elements of an agile project. It provides a well-balanced mix of theory and practice.

Learning objectives

You will gain a practical approach to the theory behind agile development, including the following outcomes:

  • Appreciate the principles of the Agile Manifesto and the agile approach to software development

  • Understand the roles within an agile team

  • Recognize how to contribute effectively as a member of an agile team

  • Apply testing methods to ensure that acceptance criteria are met

  • Understand the importance of effective sprint reviews and how to contribute to continuous process improvements through retrospectives

Target audience

This course is designed for anyone who is about to start, or is already involved in, an agile project and wants to gain a solid understanding of the fundamentals of agile development.

As this is an introductory course, only basic IT knowledge and a general understanding of development projects are required. In addition, participants must be able to read and write English at a business level.

Course format & exam format

The course is both theoretical and practical. Through exercises and dialogue, the theory will be applied and reinforced throughout the course. There will also be homework assignments of approximately 2–3 hours after each course day, consisting of reading and exercises. The course is taught in Danish, but slides, course materials, and the exam are in English.
