Course Description:

'' The course begins with a rapid introduction to all of the major activities and deliverables. During this rapid introduction, you will practice the major activities in a mini project simulation; the getting feel while glossing over the nuances. Next, you’ll use a second project, allowing you to repeat the exercises, going beyond the surface to being to understand the nuances involved in working on a project with agility. You will additionally reinforce what you’ve already practiced. Finally, you’ll work on a third project where you call the shots. The instructo will take on a coaching role, offering guidance rahter than direction. This three-pronged approach gives you an opportunity to practice the principles, integrate the principles through repeated exposure and finally confirm the learning by demonstrating an ability to work with assistance rather than guidance. You will leave with an appreciation of the principles involved rather than just understanding some scripted process.
