What is PMI-ACP Training?

The PMI-ACP® certification is a way of proving your ability as a project manager to lead and manage using the guiding practices of Agile.

Agile is a set of values and principles that help unite a team or a business in a revolutionary way. Its principles favor a client-based, iterative approach to working, centering around the values of collaboration, transparency and reflection. One of the core benefits of Agile is that it uses an adaptive approach, and therefore it should be able to adjust to, and suit, any organization by simply providing an environment that helps groups to make better decisions. Agile companies might be described as ever-changing, flexible organisms that constantly refine their decisions based on customer needs and feedback between all members of a company working together.  

By completing the The Project Management Institute’s Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) certification, you will be able to stand out among your peers and show you are ready and able to lead in this new age of product development, management and delivery.
