    The Agile Skills You Will Build

    Across Every PMI-ACP Domain

    This PMI-ACP programme covers all seven agile domains of the PMI-ACP Examination Content Outline. By the end, you can apply agile tools and techniques across Scrum, Kanban, Lean, XP and TDD in realistic delivery scenarios.

    Agile Principles and Mindset

    Skills covered in PMI-ACP training start here: model the Agile Manifesto and its 12 principles, coach teams on agile values, and champion transparency, experimentation and a safe, collaborative team environment.

    Value-Driven Delivery

    Prioritise the most valuable features using techniques such as MoSCoW and relative prioritisation, break work into iterations, plan for an early minimum viable product, and manage acceptance criteria so value is realised.

    Stakeholder Engagement

    Understand stakeholder needs with personas and empathy maps, facilitate collaboration and agile ceremonies, manage conflict, and embed feedback loops so stakeholders stay engaged throughout delivery.

    Team Performance and Servant Leadership

    Build high-performing, self-organising teams through trust, working agreements and a definition of done. Apply servant leadership and models such as Tuckman stages to grow cross-functional teams.

    Adaptive Planning

    Maintain an evolving plan with release and iteration planning, size backlogs using story points and planning poker, embrace change, and track progress with velocity, burndown and cumulative flow diagrams.

    Problem Detection and Continuous Improvement

    Surface issues early with information radiators and frequent retrospectives, then improve product, process and people through kaizen, lean thinking, TDD, continuous integration and refactoring.
