WHAT IS AGILE ARCHITECTURE?
It’s a collaborative approach to enterprise, system and software development that focuses on delivering value early in the development cycle, and continuously until projects are complete.
Agile architecture is responsive to change, rather than following a rigid plan. This enables agile teams to meet customers’ shifting needs and requirements more easily, with reduced risk of legacy systems creating technical debt.
In an agile framework, the customer or stakeholder becomes more of a collaborator, and is given more frequent insight into progress and outcomes. The outcome is more efficient development that considers shifting needs and requirements.
Agile methodologies are suitable training for anyone involved in digital transformation who needs to be able to apply agile principles at scale.
Agile training for architects and business managers fosters the ability to spearhead sustainable development built around the core principle of simplicity. Agile teams deliver working solutions frequently, with a shorter timeframe between development cycles.
Agile favours communication and collaboration over top-down hierarchy. Innovation over dogged adherence to a rulebook. In place of comprehensive documentation, the end-user gets working systems and software designed for adaptability.
Becoming an agile architect means acquiring the expertise to work in outcome-based, team-led, product-centric environments and organisations. Agile architects understand that technical excellence, good design principles and consistent daily collaboration enhance team and project agility.
WHAT WILL I GET FROM THIS AGILE CERTIFICATION?
The Open Agile Architecture™ Practitioner training will equip you with an understanding of agile architecture and the ability to apply best practices and techniques that ensure agile systems and project management.
- The first outcome is understanding the role of architecture in deploying agile solutions at scale.
- The second outcome is being able to apply best practices and full developed techniques for creating architecture in an agile, collaborative, iterative and efficient way.
- The third outcome is being able to deliver agile architecture that supports clients’ or stakeholders’ digital transformation goals – delivering adaptable architecture that the end-user wants.
- The fourth outcome is communicational cohesion – you’ll share a common language with enterprise architects and agile practitioners, enabling you to collaborate more seamlessly and efficiently within agile teams.
Looking to become an architect who understands agile methodologies inside and out? Knotion’s Open Agile Architecture™ Practitioner certification is flexible – get certified online or in person.
HOW WILL AGILE TRAINING HELP ME REACH MY GOALS?

WHY DO AGILE TRAINING WHEN I’VE DONE OR COULD DO SAFE®?
If you’ve already done SAFe® training or intend to, why do further agile training?
The Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®) is useful if you are looking for agile architecture skills and understanding to apply at an enterprise level. However, in SAFe®, there are additional methodologies for examining the larger strategic picture that not every aspiring agile architect needs at every stage of their career.
The benefit of The Open Agile Architecture™ Practitioner framework is that it supplies a strong foundation in agile to which you may add scalable frameworks with further methodologies later.
If you’re an IT professional who has already begun to explore agile and you want to excel and move up in your career, then a basic open agile certification is a rung in the ladder to achieving your career goals.
Professionals who complete our agile training have been able to earn higher salaries and move to better positions with the agile knowledge they’ve acquired.
It may be challenging to persuade managers to invest in your agile certification. Or maybe your current workload and schedule make finding the time to complete an agile certificate challenging. That’s why a flexible training timetable that will not interfere with your current projects is ideal, and an open agile certification can be completed over two-day training periods.
