"Great experience gaining my certificate with Agile Affinity. I like the way the training is organized, and the mentoring sessions helped me gain valuable feedback across my training!" - Vasileios Manolas.

"Thank you for almost a one-year-long mentorship programme. I am happy that the course really focuses not only on the theory but also on experience-based case evaluation, more case studies, more synthesis, and more appraisal. There is always some interesting discussion, review, and constructive feedback every bi-weekly mentoring session. The program was so hard, but it was worth it, fun, and energizing.." - Pricillia G.

"I want to say "Thank you so much for the best course and your support. This course has benefit to me really, really, really, really. I chose a self-paced course because my English skill for listening is not good. Your course helps me to learn step by step and cover the necessary perspectives. I really thank your course. It's made me have big energy again the knowledge that I get; I can apply it in real life." - Unchasa Anong.

FREE Course worth £300!

Frequently Asked Questions

What do I need to attend the online program?

Attending the online version of this program is simple. You just need access to a laptop/PC with a stable internet connection, audio/video, and microphone capabilities. We will send you a digital version of the program notes as and when needed, which you can print off if you like, but this is not mandatory.

Is there an exam?

No. The accreditation is achieved by completing the program requirements.

Where can I contact the organiser with any questions?

You can contact us directly by emailing us at [email protected], and one of the team will be happy to assist you.

When can I start the program? How long do I have to finish?

Once you register, you can start your program immediately. (If you see a program "start" date on the Scrum Alliance website, those are only marker dates because of how their website is currently set up.) You have six months to complete the program. You go at your own pace.

How long will it take to complete the program?

Your availability will likely govern your pace of progress. Our programs are deep and challenging by design. We recommend taking your time to practice what you learn, reflect on that experience, and look for ways to improve. If you are looking for a 2-day class, this program is not for you.

Can I take a break from the program if something comes up?

Sure! You can take breaks as needed.

Will my work be graded?

There are NO tests to obtain the certification. Our educators will look for evidence that you can practice what you have learned in the program with a Scrum/Agile team.

What is the best way to complete this program?

This program should be a learning experience you can complete at your own pace. Record your learning in a log. Be creative! Write it out, do a slide presentation, record a video, or draw. The hope is that everything you learn can be applied and repeated with your teams.
