Course Overview

The Disciplined Agile® Foundations Course by PMI is an eight-hour learning program designed for project managers, team leaders, and consultants seeking to enhance team agility and optimize workflows. This course prepares learners for the Disciplined Agile Scrum Master (DASM) certification, equipping them with a context-sensitive framework to tailor agile and lean practices effectively. With over 70% of organizations adopting agile methodologies in some form, understanding how to apply disciplined approaches is increasingly critical across industries. The curriculum focuses on real-world challenges such as misalignment, shifting priorities, and inefficiencies, empowering professionals to build adaptable, high-performing teams using PMI’s comprehensive Disciplined Agile (DA)® toolkit.

Participants engage with key components of the DA Knowledge Base, DA Browser, DA Team Canvas, and Value Acceleration Process through interactive exercises and scenario-based learning. The hands-on lab environment leverages PMI’s official eLearning platform, where students apply DA principles to real-world situations such as designing a Way of Working (WoW) for an enhancement team or optimizing processes for a maintenance team. Using the DA microsite and decision framework, learners analyze team challenges, select appropriate strategies, and build actionable improvement backlogs. These practical exercises simulate actual organizational scenarios, enabling participants to configure team workflows that respond dynamically to changing business needs.

By completing the Disciplined Agile® Foundations Course, professionals gain foundational knowledge to pursue the widely recognized DASM certification, which validates expertise in agile team leadership and process tailoring. According to PMI, certified agile professionals earn up to 25% more than non-certified peers, highlighting the credential’s career value. Koenig Solutions supports learners with official courseware and a Guaranteed-to-Run schedule, ensuring reliable access to instructor-led training. Graduates are well-positioned to lead agile transformations, improve delivery speed, and drive continuous improvement across teams—laying the foundation for long-term success in agile project management roles.
