Course overview:
This fully updated course gives you a practical foundation in modern Agile ways of working. Rather than starting with Scrum terminology, you'll first understand the thinking behind Agile: customer value, experimentation, feedback, continuous learning, ownership, and adapting to change.
From there, you'll explore Scrum, Kanban and Lean, customer research and product development, planning and prioritization, Agile roles and organizations, popular tools such as Jira, and the growing role of AI. The goal is not to memorize a framework, but to understand why Agile practices work — and when to adapt them to your context.
