How much does Agile Training cost?

Agile is the most popular project management methodology being promoted today by project management training and consulting organizations. This is due in large part to organizations finally realizing that “the way we are working is no longer working.” Agile can be seen as a silver bullet. In some cases this is true, but in many others, Agile is facing many of the same challenges as traditional project management techniques. The success or failure of Agile implementations can be tied back directly to how Agile was launched. At Cape Project Management, the home of BostonAgileTraining.com, we believe a successful Agile implementation starts with a world-class training for individuals and organizations. All of our instructors are active Agile practitioners. They have real life experience as Scrum Masters, Product Owners or Agile Coaches.
Boston is the birthplace of Scrum and has a very active Agile community including the Agile New England and Agile Boston user groups.

Finding training in the Boston area is often complicated since so many companies show up in a search engine but don’t actually offer public classes, so I put together a quick reference list of companies offering Agile training in the Boston area this spring and summer. This list of companies was identified in the first couple pages of Google by searching on Agile Training Boston Ma.  BostonAgileTraining.com is happy to be offering competitive public course rates for both its Scrum Master and PMI-ACP®
classes as well as they are only one of two companies providing rates for on-site delivery.
