PRINCE2 Agile Training


Foundation & Practitioner Course Summary

PRINCE2 Agile training focuses on building understanding on how to tailor the world’s most used project management method PRINCE2 for an agile environment. Combining the flexibility of agile, with the framework of PRINCE2. More specifically, PRINCE2 Agile® builds on the PRINCE2 project management method by illustrating how to integrate agile ways of working across PRINCE2’s principles, themes and processes. The integration of PRINCE2 with agile ways of working has resulted in PRINCE2 Agile® becoming a complete agile project management method by combining the flexibility and responsiveness of agile with the governance and management control of PRINCE2®.

The current PRINCE2 Agile standard is based on PRINCE2 6th edition.
