Overview
Cross Civil Service
Agile is a project management approach that is used increasingly often across the Civil Service. It typically features tasks being undertaken in short, sharp bursts of activity and plans being frequently reassessed and adapted. Working in this way means that less work is wasted if something suddenly changes during a project. It also means that some of a project’s beneficial outcomes can be realised as it progresses, rather than only at the end.
Working on an Agile project can be a very different experience to working in a traditional project management environment. For that reason, this online course aims to introduce you to the fundamental concepts of working with Agile, its processes and vocabulary and the benefits it can bring.
Please refer to the course flyer for a full description of the learning.
