Fundamentals of Agile and Scrum

This two-day workshop provides everything you need to get going with Agile and Scrum.

More and more companies are adopting Agile development to gain faster time to market, increased return on investment, lower development costs, and greater customer involvement. Scrum, the typical starting point for new Agile teams, brings greater visibility to projects, increases accountability, helps with forecasting, and allows for continuous change.

Delivered by Robert Dempsey, CEO of Atlantic Dominion Solutions and a Certified Scrum Practitioner, over the course of two days you'll learn everything you need to get going down the Agile path, including the Scrum process, Agile estimating and planning, writing user stories, and much more.
