Course content

We will get acquainted with the concepts, principles and philosophy of agile approaches. We will explain where and to what extent the application of agile elements makes sense. You will try out procedures and tools that you will be able to apply in your practice. We will show everything live in the game lego4scrum (the author of the game is Alexey Krivitsky and it is distributed under the CC BY 3.0 license).

In the role of Product Owner, the lecturer will outline the vision of the product and you will have to further develop it into a product backlog and then implement up to three sprints! The first day of training will be devoted to a general overview and gaining experience with agility in the form of a game.

The next day we will go deeper. We will introduce the individual tools in more detail, we will apply them to different contexts. We will also address the issue of agile transformation or large-scale projects.
