Description

This advanced training course is designed to improve your chances of passing the PMI-ACP exam.
There is an increasing demand for professionals with the PMI-ACP certification all over the world as organizations are increasingly adding Agile Methods to their portfolio of Project Management Approaches for the execution of projects.
The course builds on the candidates’ practical experience of Agile in the workplace to equip them with the broad range of knowledge and skills required for the PMI-ACP exam. It will follow the PMI® requirements and reference the suggested reading list, but will not be limited to those areas.
Within the profession and discipline of project management, Agile continues to develop as a significant and important aspect of bringing change to an organization. Where the products of change must be delivered to the business “on time”, Agile is often the chosen methodology.
In addition to equipping candidates for the PMI-ACP examination, this course will also support candidates in taking a more informed and effective role in Agile projects. It will also enable them to take a significant role in encouraging and enabling the organization to become or develop as an Agile environment.

Candidates attending this course are expected to apply for the PMI-ACP exam, therefore, the course pre-requisites will be those relevant to the exam which are:
• Secondary degree (high school or equivalent) or higher and
• 2,000 hours working on project teams within the last 5 years (Note: PMP® and/or PgMP® credential holders will be accepted as fulfilling this general project experience requirement), and
• 1,500 hours working on Agile project teams or with agile methodologies in the last 3 years (in addition to the 2,000 hours required in general project experience).
You will become familiar with the makeup and format of the exam itself by answering practice questions within each lesson.
