About This Class

Agile Essentials gives you the foundational mindset and practical skills to move beyond “doing” agile to truly “being” agile — so your team can adapt faster, collaborate better, and deliver more value with every iteration. It's a fast, practical introduction built for real work, not theory.

You'll earn the Agile Essentials microcredential from Scrum Alliance, plus a two-year Scrum Alliance membership — a recognized credential you can add to your resume right away.
