Overview

Do you want to work in IT and to manage a team? We will teach you to lead projects with Agile, to organize work, and to communicate with customers.

You will get a new profession from scratch. You will know what is a project and how different projects can be. You will figure out the goal of the project manager and to learn project planning. Also, you will be able to count spendings and to evaluate risks. We will tell you how Agile and Scrum work – from the values and planning to the tools.
