Fundamentals of Product Delivery

In this course, participants will gain an understanding of the latest Product Development methods and practices. Organizations that embrace agile delivery are able to regain control of their development environments, embracing change for their competitive advantage, and delivering value to their customers more quickly.

“We are uncovering better ways of developing software by doing it and helping others do it”. The Manifesto for Agile Software Development grew from the frustrations of real-life software development leaders who discovered that traditional waterfall methods limited them and resulted in low-quality software. In 2001, these leaders gathered together to define a new philosophy for approaching software development. This philosophy places primary value on the people involved in the development of software, daily collaboration with customers, measuring progress through frequent delivery of working software, and the creation of lightweight planning structures that allow the customer to respond to change. Methodologies and frameworks like Scrum, eXtreme Programming, Kanban, DevOps, and Continuous Delivery are implementations that adhere to the values and principles espoused in the Agile Manifesto. The Agile community continues to refine these methodologies and the technical practices that accompany them.
