The agile approach to building digital services

Since 2012, all government departments have been required to use the Agile approach to project management, to build and run new digital services. 

 

Agile methodologies have also become extremely popular within the private sector, with many organisations adopting Agile principles to become more efficient, productive and adaptive.

 

As companies start their Agile journey

One of the first challenges government departments and many private sector organisations may face when adopting agile ways of working is understanding which agile framework to apply to their existing business operating model, and understanding the rules and roles that support the transition to #Agile ways of working.

What we are doing differently 

The majority of Agile training providers in the UK are accredited by either Scrum Alliance or Scrum.Org. We have decided to focus on training that enables an individual to continue their professional development and accrue CPD learning points. We have also formatted the courses to align with the GDS Service Standards.
