For IT leaders

What IT leaders need to know before assigning this course

IT projects with changing requirements can create rework, stakeholder misalignment, and delivery risk when teams lack a shared Agile operating model. This PMI Agile Project Management training gives IT Directors and Training Managers a structured way to build consistent practices across project managers, Team Leads, and IT Practitioners who already have project management experience.

The course is best fit for agile project managers or IT staff moving into adaptive delivery roles, with roughly 15 hours per learner across fundamentals, Agile principles, leadership, Scrum and other frameworks, value prioritization, stakeholder engagement, user stories, adaptive planning, performance tracking, problem resolution, and continuous improvement. For change management, teams should expect to align terminology, planning habits, and stakeholder communication practices after training. CBT Nuggets Playlists can help sequence rollout by role, while Team Reporting helps leaders track completion and adoption across the team.

Team Impact

How this training helps your team succeed

This training helps teams apply Agile project management practices to delivery environments where priorities shift, stakeholders need frequent updates, and project value must stay visible.

  • Improve project alignment: Teams learn to define value, prioritize work based on value, and validate deliverables against stakeholder needs.
  • Strengthen stakeholder engagement: Project managers build communication, collaboration, and interpersonal skills for keeping sponsors, users, and delivery teams aligned.
  • Support adaptive delivery: Teams learn user stories, adaptive planning, and performance tracking so plans can adjust without losing control of outcomes.
  • Reduce recurring delivery issues: Training covers problem detection, resolution, continuous improvement, and process tailoring so teams can improve how work gets delivered over time.
