Comparing Agile vs Waterfall Project Management

Taught by project management experts Chris Croft and Doug Rose, the course brings together decades of experience in both Agile and Waterfall (PMI) methodologies. Through engaging discussions, real-world examples, and practical insights, learners explore the key differences between Agile and Waterfall, including planning, cost, flexibility, stakeholder involvement, risk management, and project delivery. Choosing the right project management approach can have a major impact on the success of a project. Yet one of the most common questions organisations face is whether Agile or Waterfall is the better solution. This course provides a practical, balanced comparison of both approaches, helping learners understand where each method excels, where it struggles, and how to make the right choice for different types of projects. Rather than teaching the fundamentals of each methodology, the course focuses on helping professionals evaluate and compare them in a practical business context. Participants will gain a clearer understanding of which approach is best suited to different project environments and how to avoid common misconceptions surrounding both methods. Ideal for project managers, team leaders, and decision-makers involved in project delivery, this course provides the knowledge needed to make more informed project management choices and improve project outcomes.
