PRINCE2 Agile is suitable for anyone who delivers projects, large or small, in an agile context. It is a valuable training and certification scheme for anyone working within an agile project environment, whether they’re a project manager, project support or part of the wider project team.
Pre-requisites
Students will be required to complete pre-course reading prior to their attendance to ensure that they are prepared for the course. Students should receive their courseware two weeks prior to the start date of the course. It is therefore encouraged that students read, and familiarize themselves with, the PRINCE2 Agile Handbook prior to the start of the course. Whilst attending the course students should also be prepared to complete evening work.
PRINCE2 Agile Foundation has no prerequisites, however a PRINCE2 certification is preferable. Those without any pre-existing knowledge of PRINCE2 are eligible to sit the certification as this will be covered during the training.

PRINCE2 Agile® Overview
PRINCE2 Agile® is a solution combining the flexibility and responsiveness of agile with the clearly defined framework of PRINCE2®. PRINCE2 Agile framework covers a wide range of agile concepts, including SCRUM, Kanban and Lean Start-up. It provides guidance on tailoring PRINCE2 in an agile context and includes:
