Who Should Attend

Participants should have at least 2 years of working experience with interest in agile business practices and management.

Overview

The hyper-connected business world today requires an Agile mindset and a new set of skills to overcome business challenges.

An effective Business Agilist is able to guide oneself and others to maximise business value through agile methodologies and practices. Business Agilists are able to formulate action plans and use a variety of frameworks, tools, and techniques to jumpstart organisational and individual transformation into more agile, responsive, value-driven entities.

Topic/Structure

Topics

This programme consists of 5 modules:

  • Module 1: Business Agility Foundations (ICP-BAF)
  • Module 2: Agile Project and Delivery Management (ICP-APM)
  • Module 3: Leading With Agility (ICP-LEA)
  • Module 4: Agile Coaching (ICP-ACC)
  • Module 5: Coaching Agile Transformations (ICP-CAT)

Programme Structure 

Participants may either attend the full programme or only selected module(s). 

Leveraging on SMU’s distinctive pedagogy for interactive, discussion driven and thought provoking seminar-style teaching, we aim to provide our participants with the ability to translate the learning and insights into practice at the workplace. A variety of teaching methods such as experiential learning, role plays, case discussions, presentations, exercises and oral questioning will be employed by the programme’s faculty in the training sessions. There will also be an individual assessment at the end of every module which serve to assess a participant’s understanding of the subject matter.

Assessment

Participants have to meet a minimum attendance rate of 75% and have to complete all assessment(s) required by the course. Only upon meeting the minimum attendance and passing the assessment will participants be issued a Certificate of Completion.

Participants who fail the assessment will be given a chance for re-assessment at a fee of SGD100.00 (excluding prevailing GST). Each participant is allowed 1 re-assessment. The re-assessment has to be taken within 7 calendar days from the end of the course date. It will be held on a weekday specified by SMU Academy and conducted during office hours. Please note that re-assessment fees are not supported by SSG Funding.

Participants who meet the minimum attendance rate but do not achieve a pass for the assessment will be issued a Certificate of Participation.

Participants are required to bring their laptop to access the course materials, class exercises and individual assessment(s).

In order to be awarded with Advanced Certificate in Agile Business Practices and Management, participants are required to complete all 5 modules within 2 years.
