Leading SAFe® with Certified SAFe® Agilist (SA)

Learn how to thrive in the Digital Age with Business Agility with the Scaled Agile Framework®

Overview

Leading SAFe® offers an introduction to the foundations of SAFe and provides the principles and practices to confidently drive your Lean-Agile transformation. The course and resulting certification equip you with the guidance and tools to build a culture of resiliency and a shared language that engages employees and focuses on customers so that organizations can work with agility at scale.

During a Leading SAFe course you will discover how companies can build business agility, and how to make SAFe work inside your organization.
