AgilePM Weekend Virtual Course Introduction

Take this excellent opportunity to gain or formalise your project management skills in a convenient online classroom.

Note: This course is purely for online attendees - we don't have Remote and In-Person attendees on public courses as online and classroom training have widely differing instructional and timing requirements for optimal learning.

AgilePM Weekend 'Attend from Anywhere': Adopt a practical and repeatable methodology that achieves an ideal balance between the standards, rigour and visibility required for good project management, and the fast-pace, change and empowerment provided by Agile.

This AgilePM instructor-led virtual training course maps to the AgilePM Syllabus - helping you to prepare for the exams. Learners gain the knowledge and skills at AgilePM Foundation level and for those attending the extended session, Practitioner level also. Learners will be provided with focused pre-study materials which need to be completed before the course. Some evening study will be required during the course to assist in preparation for the exam(s) and to keep in step with the class.

Here are some key features of our AgilePM Weekend 'Attend from Anywhere' - virtual course to compare and contrast with other providers:

  • 100% Pass Rate for our In-House Trainer

AgilePM Certification and Related Examinations

There are two levels of exam: Foundation and Practitioner.

We'll help you organise your online exams.

Agile Project Management (AgilePM®)

The world’s leading framework and certification for Agile Project Management (Website): AgilePM® Project Management Certifications

For Foundation level the course involves 14 Hours of instruction over two day (Saturday and Sunday) sessions. The exam is generally taken online at the learner's convenience once study is complete.

For Practitioner the course requires 12 hours of instruction over two days and the Foundation certification is a prerequisite. For someone requiring both Foundation and Practitioner the training can either be relatively 'back to back' or with several weeks gap between as long as the learner maintains their knowledge.

The exam is generally taken online at the learner's convenience once study is complete. We also provide physically attended exam sessions as these allow the candidate to have the physical paperwork in front of them which may suit some people's approach.
