PRINCE2 Agile Foundation case studies
PRINCE2 Agile Foundation · Put your knowledge to work in context.
PRINCE2 Agile Foundation is an entry-level certification in the PRINCE2 family of project management credentials offered by Peoplecert. Where classic PRINCE2 provides a structured, principle-based governance framework for projects, PRINCE2 Agile is aimed at people who need to combine that structure with agile ways of working - so that delivery teams can iterate and respond to change while the wider organisation retains clear roles, controls and decision points. The PRINCE2 Agile Foundation case studies are 5 cases and about 3,755 words.
