AgilePM® Foundation

AgilePM®️ was first released in 2010, with over 250,000 people worldwide becoming AgilePM certified by 2025, making AgilePM the most popular agile project management qualification globally.
Scrum evolved simultaneously with AgilePM (formerly called DSDM), but entirely independently of it, and helped shape the Agile Manifesto. It has become the world’s most popular agile product delivery approach, with individuals certified by a range of organisations numbering in the millions.

AgilePM version 3 blends the powerful simplicity and potent agility of Scrum for product development, with the fundamentals of AgilePM that bring agility to the much broader project context. Scrum has been chosen here because of its popularity but any agile approach to development that is focused at the development team level would also fit. Examples include DSDM and Kanban (both at the Solution Development Team level), DevOps, eXtreme Programming (XP) and Agile Digital Services – AgileDS (which is based on the increasingly popular UK Government Digital Services standard).
