About Agile Planning and Estimation
Duration: 1.5 – 3 day course
Resources: Workbook
Learn state-of-the-art methods and practices for planning, estimating, and managing Agile projects. The real-world practices presented in this course are based upon evolved concepts and support both basic Scrum projects and Agile at scale—and they have been proven on the ground through extensive use by Construx’s clients. These concepts are illustrated throughout the course with numerous hands-on exercises.
After the class, attendees will understand and be able to effectively plan and estimate their projects in days instead of weeks, and be able to confidently forecast project completions with accuracy.
