“Project Decisions with DA Masterclass” – Are you certified in Disciplined Agile with the DASM and or DASSM certification and still wondering how to use DA effectively? Or are you not ready to make the investment from a time or financial perspective and earn DASM or DASSM, but still want to learn how to use DA in just 4 hours? Then sign up for the Project Decisions with DA Masterclass! 

Are you feeling lost or overwhelmed when navigating the selection of practices, lifecycles, work methods, or frameworks for your project? Do you find that many of these choices harm your project more than it helps because it is not fit for purpose? In this hands-on session, you will learn how to use the Disciplined Agile tool kit as a project professional effectively. You will learn how to navigate making the right choices for lifecycles and work methods and how to adjust them when changes disrupt previous choices on lifecycles and practices. You will learn how to take effective advantage of the Disciplined Agile knowledge assets by making informed choices on Ways of Working (WoW) in various contexts. You learn by doing! You ask yourself the question: How do I apply this and how do I put this into action? Registration for the Project Decision with DA Masterclass is an additional cost to the PDD day, of $199 US.
