Description

What is AgilePM®?

AgilePM® is a project management method whereby the project is undertaken incrementally, making it easier to determine what the changes and risks will be and thus making it easier to deal with them if and when they do arise. Each aspect of the project is revised at certain, predetermined times.

This course covers the fundamentals of the AgilePM® method and will give students the ability to apply the method to projects in a practical situation. As the first level of training in the Agile method, this course will not only prepare you for a successful career in project management, it will prepare you for the next stage in the certification track. For those who successfully complete Agile Foundation (AgilePM®), they will be eligible for the Practitioner level, which is a highly sought after certification in this field.

Many organisations around the world implement the AgilePM® method as it is accepted as one of the leading project management methods, and as such, are looking for employees who are AgilePM® certified. As an internationally recognised certification, this course is a must-have for aspiring Project Managers.

Some of the skills you will learn:

  • Project control
  • Project planning
  • The roles and responsibilities during a project
  • The implementation of the Agile method

Technological improvements and advances in educational design mean that studying online is no longer just a low-cost alternative to traditional training methods. In many respects, our online courses offer training which is superior to the majority of available classroom options.

Not only is the effectiveness of the training process enhanced, but also the convenience and overall cost-effectiveness of studying online make it a compelling option for training.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
