Description

Agile delivery and consulting methods have evolved considerably over the years. Modern methods of Agile project delivery and process improvements have benefitted from the insight of a number of frameworks such as ODI (Outcome-Driven Innovation) or Jobs-To-Be-Done-Theory and Impact Mapping to deliver the right product to the right people at the right time. In this course, we cover modern agile project delivery from inception/ideation to testing and eventually continuous integration and delivery. Along the way, we will gain a better understanding of what an Agile mindset truly is, how to scale effectively, and how focusing on customer outcomes and use case scenarios results in better products and services.

On successful completion of the course, you will receive a Course Completion Certificate from KnowledgeHut.

Attended Full-Stack Development Bootcamp workshop in July 2022

The Backend boot camp is a great, beginner-friendly program! I started from zero knowledge and learnt everything through the learn-by-doing method. 

Attended Back-End Development Bootcamp workshop in July 2021

The learning system set up everything for me. I wound up working on projects I've never done and never figured I could. 

Attended Back-End Development Bootcamp workshop in April 2021

Everything was well organized. I would definitely refer their courses to my peers as well. The customer support was very interactive. As a small suggestion to the trainer, it will be better if we have discussions in the end like Q&A sessions.

Attended PMP® Certification workshop in April 2020

The course material was designed very well. It was one of the best workshops I have ever attended in my career. Knowledgehut is a great place to learn new skills. The certificate I received after my course helped me get a great job offer. The training session was really worth investing.

Attended Agile and Scrum workshop in August 2020

The workshop was practical with lots of hands on examples which has given me the confidence to do better in my job. I learned many things in that session with live examples. The study materials are relevant and easy to understand and have been a really good support. I also liked the way the customer support team addressed every issue.
