Description

To successfully implement SAFe®, organizations must embrace the Lean-Agile culture, identify Value Streams and build processes that enhance quality and optimize resources.

As a SAFe Practice Consultant (SPC), you'll be the visionary who drives this change. Learn to follow the SAFe Implementation Roadmap to bring an organization to the tipping point, identify Value Streams and prepare, launch, and coach Agile Release Trains (ARTs). Streamline and set up best practices for Business Agility by building a continuous learning culture, and create opportunities for continuous improvement by applying the SAFe assessments.

Certifying as a SAFe® 6 Practice Consultant (SPC) will also enable you to train and certify others in a range of SAFe® courses, accelerating the adoption of SAFe across various levels of the enterprise.
