OVERVIEW:
PRINCE2 Agile® Foundation level is the introduction level of PRINCE2 Agile Practitioner
PRINCE2 Agile® is the world’s most complete project management solution, combining the flexibility and responsiveness of agile with the clearly defined framework of PRINCE2®. The new best practice guidance shows how this compatibility can be exploited by organisations harnessing both PRINCE2 and agile, equipping them with the required skills and processes to successfully deliver projects to meet customer requirements in today’s fast paced and rapidly changing business environments:
- The combination of control and flexibility
- Clear project definitions
- Seamless integration
- Improved capability to react and adapt
PRINCE2 Agile Foundation is a newly developed certification level to support PRINCE2 Agile. In 2015, PRINCE2 Agile initially launched with a Practitioner level certification and this new Foundation level will build upon that success by opening PRINCE2 Agile out to project managers outside of the existing PRINCE2 community. The development of the new certification level will not impact the existing prerequisites for PRINCE2 Agile Practitioner, it will add one more route for candidates
It is an extension module tailored for forward-thinking organizations and individuals already benefiting from PRINCE2 and provides further guidance onhow to apply agile methods to the world’s most recognized project management method.
