This intensive two-day training equips teams within an Agile Release Train (ART) to thrive in an Agile setting by leveraging frameworks like Scrum, Kanban, and XP. Attendees will gain practical skills in functioning as Agile teams, managing backlogs, and successfully planning and executing iterations. A key focus is understanding the team’s specific role within the ART and mastering collaboration, planning, execution, and continuous improvement alongside peer teams.

The program prepares teams to engage effectively in Program Increments (PI), addressing both team-level and program-level events, with special attention to upcoming PI planning sessions. Upon completion, participants will be well-prepared to sit for the certification exam to achieve their SAFe® Practitioner (SP) designation.
