SAFe Programs for Your Organization

Customized to meet Your current Business and Agile Context

Scaled Agile is not an easy initiative.

GETTING THE RIGHT SAFe TRAINING TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE AT THE RIGHT TIME CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE.

SAFe offers numerous training courses and workshops and it can get quite confusing. Each course and workshop is designed to achieve certain objectives. It’s very important that an organization develops an internal scaling strategy and has a training plan to ensure the right training is getting to the right people at the right time. We will guide you through this process.

What previous learners are saying:

Taking the Scrum Master training was a great experience that allowed my team and others in our organization to learn the fundamental of the Scrum/Agile methodology. This course was very interactive and the instructor was very engaged in understanding our organization’s needs. Overall, I would recommend this course to anyone interested in learning and applying these concepts in their daily work.
