What changes for your team

  • Replace deadline guesswork with evidence
  • Spot trouble before it becomes a crisis
  • Turn agile data into action

Immersive training pays back differently to a two-day course. Sessions spread across several weeks mean each idea is applied in your real work before the next one lands — so capability builds instead of fading under a backlog.

Frequently Asked Questions

Applying Metrics for Predictability is for executives, managers, product owners, team members, and anyone involved in Agile or Lean project management who needs to forecast delivery or answer questions like “When will it be done?” It’s not for those who work outside of project delivery or have no need to use agile metrics to answer predictability or risk questions.

There are no formal prerequisites; you just need to be involved with Agile or Lean work where delivery questions and team metrics matter.

Applying Metrics for Predictability is a hands-on workshop focused on practical exercises using real project scenarios and actual metrics, with discussion on how to apply these tools rather than relying on lecture alone.

You’ll address practical challenges like improving project predictability, reliably answering stakeholder questions about delivery timelines, applying metrics to current projects, and using analytics to quantify risk and process performance.

After the course, you’re invited to take an online assessment that measures your understanding of metrics and forecasting; if you don’t pass, you get guidance on where to improve and another attempt.

Most organisations don't need a course catalogue. They need a diagnosis. Tell me what's not working, who is involved, and what you've already tried. I'll tell you honestly whether training will help, and if so, what.
