Exam Code: CMAT-011
The Certified Master Agile Tester (CMAT)™ introduces core agile philosophies such as servant leadership, adaptive planning, frequent feedback for learning, and a focus on value-driven versus plan-driven delivery.
Courses compare and contrast agile management with traditional management approaches and give participants principles and tools to apply in their teams and organizations. Learning objectives focus on delivering agile projects as well as applying agile management principles beyond projects to broader organizational contexts. As agile leaders progress in organizations, they set the vision and overall goals, then empower their people to lead teams and achieve exceptional results.
