ICAgile Certified Professional - Agile Coaching (ICP ACC) Workshop - Houston, TX


The ICP-ACC, the agile coaching certification is one of two knowledge-based certifications on the Agile Coaching track. This certification focuses primarily on the mindset, roles, and responsibilities of an Agile Coach.

After finishing the certification, you will be able to differentiate between and among mentoring, facilitating, professional coaching and teaching. You will also gain the skills needed to create a safe environment for meaningful collaboration and healthy conflict resolution within an agile team.

This certification introduces you to team coaching skills and team development concepts for starting and growing teams while focusing on teams and organizations as human systems. A key part of this certification focuses on developing an understanding of the professional coaching skillset and the value of honing these skills to serve individuals on an agile team.

This is a three full-day workshop loaded with Activities, Simulations, and fun exercises. You will also get loads of tools, templates, and worksheets to jump start your journey as an agile coach or advance those who are already agile coaches.
