Scaled Agile Framework Practitioner and Consultant Certification Curriculum
Posted on April 18, 2012 by Dean Leffingwell in Scaled Agile Framework/Big PictureWe’ve finalized the first release of the Scaled Agile Framework (pronounced SAFe) consultant certification curriculum. It’s posted at my Scaled Agile, Inc. partner’s website here:
The curriculum establishes three continuing levels of certification: SAfe Practitioner, SAFe Program Consultant, and SAF Program and Portfolio Consultant, aligning reasonably well to the levels (Team, Program and Portfolio) of the framework itself. We’ve tried to establish a balance between a rigorous curriculum that assures quality and a process that is achievable and affordable for those committed to helping businesses achieve the personal and business benefits of agility at enterprise scale.
The first certification class will be held in Boulder May 22-25. It looks like the class will likely sell out, so if you are interested in attending I wouldn’t wait too long to register .
I look forward to seeing some of you there.

Having read “Agile Software Requirements”, such a curriculum sounds very interesting. The details of the curriculum leave me with a question. A couple of thousand dollars would be wasted if the class is just a re-hash of the book. What would you say is the “value-add” for the class for those who have already absorbed the content of the book? I see a few of them, but if you could amplify, that would be great.
