AGILE TRAINING SPRINT UP TO SUCCESS!

Agile methodology is the most recent and a revolutionary methodology to manage projects successfully right from start to the closure of the project. It consists of a series of phases, which are visited time and again to ensure that the product life cycle is in sync. with the customer needs and requirements. 

Agile principles and practices are used to successfully manage change, enhance communication, minimise costs, increase efficiency and exhibit value to stakeholders and customers. It consists of gradually improving the product through iterative phases, which consist of targeted improvements. 

There is high visibility of project progress, which assists in monitoring the problems. The customer takes an active part throughout the product development life-cycle. Unlike the waterfall approach, where work is carried out in sequential phases and a phase has to be completed in order to go to the next phase, This approach has its own drawback in the sense that the product life cycle carries on without keeping in view the evolving customer needs. The net result is a product that is outdated and lagging way behind the new customer needs and requirements. In Agile Training, Iterative phases are carried out where a nimble response is required to the Project Management, whereas the waterfall approach is carried out where no such change in requirements is expected. Organisations become more adaptive to business needs in terms of adding, deleting or changing requirements.
