Foundation to Practitioner
The AgilePM Foundation and Practitioner course teaches you to apply the DSDM-based agile framework end to end: the eight principles, the project lifecycle, MoSCoW prioritisation, timeboxing, defined roles, and planning, control and risk. By the end you can run governed agile projects with confidence.
Use the eight DSDM-based principles, from focusing on the business need to never compromising quality, to guide day-to-day project decisions and keep delivery on track.
Move a project through Pre-Project, Feasibility, Foundations, Exploration, Engineering and Deployment, producing the right management products at each phase.
Apply Must, Should, Could and Won't have prioritisation to protect deadlines, control scope and guarantee on-time delivery when timeboxes come under pressure.
Plan and run fixed-length timeboxes, fixing time and cost while flexing scope, and manage iterative, incremental delivery across multiple timeboxes.
Structure business, technical and management roles, from Business Sponsor to Project Manager, and keep teams collaborating effectively in an agile environment.
Plan at strategic, tactical and operational levels, track progress with burndown and timebox data, and manage risk within the AgilePM governance model.

Passed Both Levels First Time
"The combined AgilePM course gave me the structure I needed to move from a delivery role into leading projects. The trainer made the DSDM lifecycle and MoSCoW easy to apply, and I passed both exams first time."
Aoife Byrne
Agile Project Manager
(5/5)
The Governance Layer I Was Missing
"As a Scrum Master I wanted the governance side that Scrum alone does not cover. The Practitioner scenarios and open book practice were spot on, and I now handle timeboxing and roles with far more confidence at work."
Cian O'Sullivan
Scrum Master
(5/5)
Practical and Well Structured
"Very practical sessions that connected the eight principles to real project situations. The mock exams flagged my weak areas early, which made revision much more focused. Great support from the team throughout."
