Agenda for Agile HR Training

This training bridges the world of HR and agility. You’ll explore the key shifts in thinking and action that make HR an enabler of true business agility. Whether you’re in talent, operations, or L&D — this is your starting point for Agile HR.

1. Agile Basics for HR

Get grounded in the agile mindset, values, and principles. Learn how agile frameworks like Scrum, Kanban, and Design Thinking apply to HR work and why short iterations, customer-centricity, and feedback loops are essential for HR innovation.

2. From Traditional HR to Agile HR

Explore the paradigm shift from compliance-focused HR to value-driven HR. Understand how Agile HR redefines roles, promotes collaboration, and drives a culture of experimentation. Discover how HR can shift from enforcing policies to co-creating meaningful people solutions.

3. Agile HR Products & Tools

Discover how to build Agile HR products that deliver end-to-end value. Work with user personas, employee journey maps, and OKRs to co-create initiatives that matter. Visualize your work using HR Kanban boards and adopt iterative development in your daily HR operations.

Design Sprint: Work hands-on with user-centered tools to co-create a relevant Agile HR solution that solves a real challenge in your context.

4. Feedback, Metrics & Value

Learn how to measure what truly matters in Agile HR. Use metrics like Net Promoter Score (NPS), team health checks, lead time, and cycle time to monitor progress and value delivery. Understand how feedback loops can fuel continuous improvement in HR services and culture.

5. HR’s Role in Organizational Agility

Examine the evolving role of HR as a catalyst for agile transformation. Understand how HR can promote psychological safety, team autonomy, and adaptive leadership. Shift from managing systems to designing cultures where people can thrive.

Agile Simulation: Participate in a dynamic, interactive simulation to experience agile collaboration, decision-making, and customer orientation in action.

Bring Your Own Ideas & Questions

We encourage participants to bring their questions to the training. Any question and real-world example from your side will make everything you and others learn more tangible. It will also result in more energy throughout the training which is connected to better learning.

This course is for HR specialists, people partners, L&D professionals, and anyone in HR who wants to understand agility and play a role in enabling it.

No. This training is about mindset, methods, and practical HR tools — not coding or software delivery.

Yes. You will receive the Agile HR Level 1 certification, valid for life and certified by Agile Academy.

The choice depends on what's most important to you:
  • If you value practical application and want flexibility between e-learning and live training, Certified by Agile Academy is ideal.
  • If you want to focus purely on the Scrum framework, Scrum Alliance could be an option. However, be aware of the ongoing recertification costs.
  • If you just want to take an exam and are willing to pay the exam fees, then Scrum.org is an alternative.
Certifications like Scrum.org are often exam-focused, meaning theoretical knowledge is sufficient. If you care more about real, applicable skills, Agile Academy offers the better approach.

  • Lifetime Validity: You never need to renew your certificate or pay additional fees.
  • Holistic Approach: Beyond Scrum, Agile Academy covers topics crucial for modern work practices, such as:
    • OKRs (Objectives and Key Results): Goal management for teams.
    • Psychological Safety: Creating a safe work environment.
    • Leadership Development: Leadership skills for Agile teams.
  • Our approach makes you a comprehensively trained agilist – far beyond the basics.
  • Practice-Oriented: The focus is on applying what you learn directly. Our exams and assignments are designed to test and promote your practical skills – ideal for real project environments.
  • Flexible Learning: Choose between e-learning and live training, depending on what better fits your schedule.
  • Free Retakes: You can retake the exam as many times as needed at no additional cost.

  • No Hidden Costs: Unlike ScrumAlliance or Scrum.org, we have no ongoing fees or expensive exam attempts.
  • Broader Range of Topics: We go well beyond Scrum and cover modern, practice-relevant topics like OKRs, Psychological Safety, and Leadership Development.
  • Practice-Oriented Certificates: Our certificates reflect your actual abilities, not just passing an exam. The goal is for you to apply your knowledge directly in real projects.
  • Lifetime Validity: Through our lifetime certification, you save considerable time and money in the long run.
  • Modern Learning Formats: Agile Academy offers you the flexibility to choose between live training and e-learning to optimally support your personal learning style.

Yes! Unlike many other certification bodies, Agile Academy doesn't force you to attend live training. You can prepare flexibly and independently through e-learning. However, live training is available if you prefer personal interaction.

The "Certified by Agile Academy" credential was launched in 2024. Our goal is to make this certification the new standard in the agile world – with a strong focus on quality, practical relevance, and the requirements of modern organizations.

Agile Academy itself is already a recognized name in the DACH region: We have been working successfully with many large, well-known as well as small companies for years. With our extensive experience and excellent reputation, we are among the top providers for agile training. You can be confident that our certificates are designed for quality and practical relevance – exactly what modern organizations are looking for.
