This didn't tell me how to build awesome teams it was more of an intro to Agile and why it should be adopted. It didn't touch on kanban or XP much. Basic

I am relatively new to agile and I have done some reading up on my own and this course has just helped to pull it all together nicely. I still have a lot to learn but I got some really great detail just from this one course and I learned something about a PMO's role in agile transformation that kind of blew my mind!

It is a really good introduction for anyone who is interested by far or close to agile. I, especially, liked the Scrum Master video.
