Being a PMP and an Agile Project Manager—Can You Do Both?
You have to be a member to view this video.
This webinar is specifically aimed at traditionally trained software project managers who are new to Agile, and who would like to be able to relate the Project Management Institute's (PMI) best practices to their equivalent practices in Agile. As a result of being able to associate many of these new Agile ideas to things that are already familiar, the listener can begin their Agile journey with a new shared lexicon and knowledge of general Agile concepts. In addition to the mapping of the PMBOK Guide® knowledge areas to Agile practices, there is also focus on how the job of the traditional project manager is re-defined into a new, and often more important role in the Agile development process.
