Live Online Training (Start Time: 9am GMT)
To overcome the challenges currently associated with attending in-person training, agil8 have adapted the delivery of this course into a live online training format with added focus on how to work using agile with remote team members.
Utilising live video, alongside our bespoke online training platform (unique to agil8), we’re able to replicate the interactive nature of our face-to-face training within a virtual environment. As such, individuals can undertake this training from their home, or any other remote location.
What you can expect from agil8’s Live Online Training:
- Each course is delivered via a live video feed, and is centred around the use of agil8’s totally bespoke, purpose-built, online training platform (built by one of our very own trainers).
- Our online courses are delivered by the very same, highly experienced, trainers that deliver our in-person courses. Each trainer has 10-20 years of Agile experience.
- Utilising Training from the Back of the Room techniques – attendees will work as part of small teams within virtual breakout rooms, and enjoy live collaboration throughout various training exercises.
- All attendees will receive an electronic copy of the respective course manual ahead of the scheduled training date - allowing delegates to follow the content throughout the course.
Attending an online course is simple – all you need is a PC / Laptop with audio, video and microphone functionality, and of course a fast and secure internet connection.
