Course overview
The AgilePM Foundation course provides learners with a solid understanding of the Agile Project Management framework — a flexible, collaborative, and iterative approach to delivering projects. Based on the Agile Business Consortium’s guidance and accredited by APMG International, this course is designed to help professionals manage changing project requirements efficiently.
AgilePM is widely adopted across industries such as tech, marketing, finance, and public services, making it an ideal entry-level qualification for anyone aiming to work in fast-paced, adaptive project environments. Whether you’re new to project management or looking to transition into agile roles, this course gives you the practical tools and terminology needed to succeed.
Professionals who hold the AgilePM Foundation certification can typically earn €45,000 to €55,000 per year in roles such as Agile Project Assistant, Delivery Coordinator, or Junior Scrum Master. It’s also a stepping stone toward more advanced Agile roles and certifications.
