Program: The Flavors of Agile: Who’s Who of Certifications

Description: In the old days with project management certification, it was PMI or nothing. Today the emphasis has shifted to AGILE and there is a plethora of solutions – but the question now is “where is the value”. This presentation will explore the specific differences between the knowledge, prestige, compensation, support and the cost to acquire and maintain the different AGILE certifications.
