Certified Agile Scaling Practitioner 1 (CASP 1) Workshop

Scaling Agile: Aligning Autonomy

Improving the value delivered through a large organization isn’t just about following a framework. And cramming through twice the work in half the time just adds stress everywhere.

For success with Agile at scale, it's about increasing capacity while tempering complexity. It’s about discerning patterns and principles that fit your unique situation. It’s about embedding new practices and support structures that guide proven change management ideas. And leading the change through iterative and incremental delivery, enabling you to grow new capabilities while sustaining your business.

If you’re ready to harness the power of aligned autonomy to positively impact business outcomes, this course is for you. Together we’ll uncover common pitfalls with scaling Agile and explore alternatives. You’ll learn how to attune scaling to your business strategy. And you’ll see how it’s possible to lead effective multi-team product development to grow clear, sustainable capabilities.

Learn and Apply the Ins and Outs of Successfully Scaling Agile

By the end of the workshop, you’ll be prepared to:

• Recognize both the challenges and opportunities of Agile at scale
• Analyze pre-conditions to catalyze scaling that liberate capacity and increase value delivery
• Define a clear strategy and vision for Product-led vs Revenue-led organizations
• Identify transitional structures to make scaling Agility safer for your own business & participants
• Enable your organization to increase capacity and capability to sustainably deliver value

Such skills are hard to learn via lecture alone - so this workshop is hands-on and interactive. This is no Powerpoint snoozefest. Short presentations cover concepts. Immersive team-based exercises are interwoven into each lesson to get you hands-on practice. You'll find the engaging and impactful sessions turn complex topics into easy to understand concepts and techniques.

And it isn't all theory. Under your trainers' guidance, you'll apply what you've learned to address the challenges you could face with scaling Agile in your own organization.

FAQ

How soon can I get my CASP 1® certification? On completing your participation in the full workshop, we will let the Scrum Alliance know of your successful completion of the course. You'll receive an email from them to setup your profile on the Scrum Alliance website and then you'll be a Bonafide, official CASP 1®!

Wait! Don't I Need to Take an Exam to be Certified as a CASP 1®? No. Currently the only requirement to become a CASP 1® is the successful completion of the course. The Scrum Alliance is hard at work to develop an online exam for the CASP 1®. So, if you love taking tests, wait a bit to enroll in a CASP 1® workshop. Otherwise - get it now with us!

Can I Miss Several Hours of the Workshop and Still be Certified? No. If you miss more than 15 minutes of the workshop, you will not be eligible for certification, and you will be welcome to attend the rest of the workshop. Don't worry - if something big comes up, we'll move you to a future workshop at no cost.

What do I need to bring to class? You'll need a computer with microphone, camera & speakers. Use https://fast.com to test your internet connection. After the download numbers stop, use the "more" option to calculate your upload speed. You'll need 5 down / 1 up - and more is better. Now, while in class, you'll be actively using your computer to participate in exercises, so plan to peek at your email only during a break or at lunchtime.
