We begin with an introduction to the course and what you can expect from the videos, resources, and quizzes in this Learning Path. The course is designed to help you apply AgileSHIFT when you get back to work and there are some important resources that you can access in this module to support this.

The Reflective Activities complement the videos by giving you the chance to consider what AgileSHIFT means to you and how you can put the principles, practices, and processes to best use in your organization. Each activity is associated with an important aspect of AgileSHIFT. Examples of concepts, practices, and processes are contained in the videos. The Making AgileSHIFT Real examples support these by providing further case studies of AgileSHIFT at work. There’s a Glossary to explain the key terms used in the AgileSHIFT framework.

Before you start your learning, take some time to look through these documents and work out how you’re going to use them as you go through the course. You can print them out or complete them on your computer.
