Översikt
Denna 2-dagars kurs är lämplig för alla IT-proffs som är intresserade av att använda Waterfall-modellen och hur människor traditionellt har försökt att hantera dess brister - inklusive, men inte begränsat till, Agile metoder.
Syftet med den första dagen är att ge en översikt över dessa tillvägagångssätt som gör att du kan bestämma vad som kan passa dem i din miljö.
Den andra dagen tittar på projektledningstekniker och god praxis som har identifierats från Agile, och som kan tillämpas i ett vattenfall eller Agile sammanhang.
