Who Should Attend

Individuals who are keen to understand how AI can enhance iterative delivery, feedback cycles, and adaptive planning — without replacing human judgement. 

PREREQUISITES

There are no prerequisites for this programme. Prior knowledge on any of the topics is not required.

Overview

Transform how organisations analyse information, make decisions, and deliver services with Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is no longer a future concept but a present-day capability.

AI is increasingly embedded in organisational workflows, influencing how information is analysed, decisions are made, and services are delivered. While AI technologies can process data and generate insights at unprecedented speed, their effectiveness ultimately depends on how professionals apply judgement, experimentation, and collaborative problem solving.

This 2-day AI course introduces AI-Augmented Agile Delivery, combining Generative AI (GenAI), Agile principles, and prompt engineering to enhance how work is planned, executed, and improved. Rather than positioning AI as a replacement for human expertise, the course focuses on how professionals can collaborate with AI to improve decision-making, accelerate experimentation, and enhance value delivery.

Learning Objectives

At the end of the 2-day course, participants will be able to:

  • Apply Agile principles and frameworks such as experimentation, feedback loops, and iterative improvement when working with Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools and Generative AI (GenAI)-enabled workflows

  • Develop effective prompts using prompt engineering techniques to generate actionable insights

  • Use AI tools to support analysis, planning, and problem solving in professional settings

  • Design small-scale Agile experiments to explore AI-enabled improvements in organisational workflows

Topic/Structure

Day 1:

Session 1: Understanding AI and GenAI in an Agile Environment

Session 2: AI Opportunities and Risks – Making Responsible AI Decisions

Session 3 : Agile Values and Principles for AI Adoption

Session 4: Prompt Engineering for Agile Teams

Session 5: The Agile Advantage in the Age of AI

Session 6: Creating Business Value with AI


Day 2:

Session 7: Agentic AI and the Future of Agile Teams

Session 8: Capstone Experience: Transforming Ideas into Customer Value through AI and Agility

 

Participants will work hands-on with AI tools to explore real workplace scenarios, develop effective prompts, and design small-scale Agile experiments that demonstrate how AI can support operational and strategic work.

The course is aligned to the International Consortium for Agile (ICAgile) Certified Professional – Foundations of Artificial Intelligence (ICP-FAI), offering participants a globally recognised Agile AI certification.

Assessment

As part of the requirement for SkillsFuture Singapore, there will be an assessment conducted at the end of the course. The mode of assessment, which is up to the trainer’s discretion, may be an online quiz, a presentation or based on classroom exercises.

Participants are required to attain a minimum of 75% attendance and pass the associated assessment in order to receive a digital Certificate of Completion issued by SMU Academy.
