This course focuses on Agile and hybrid approaches within the Process domain and the Business Environment domain. Learners will explore the Agile mindset, Scrum and Kanban frameworks, and adaptive planning. You will also examine how projects align with organizational strategy, governance, compliance requirements, and sustainability considerations. You will learn when and how to tailor the 40 non-prescriptive processes, manage value-driven backlogs, and apply adaptive planning and forecasting techniques. The course also explores governance as the “strategic glue,” the output-outcome-benefit chain, organizational change management, and benefits realization. Through healthcare-based scenarios, interactive activities, practice exercises, and a hands-on final project, you will build the situational judgment needed to apply Agile, hybrid, and Business Environment concepts to healthcare project decisions and strengthen your preparation for the PMP® exam.
