I now have a lot of team facilitation techniques up my sleeve:)

Online ICP-ATF Course Program
Interaction
During this online Agile Team Facilitator certification course , you will work closely with the other participants, and need to take at least 30 minutes in between sessions to study material or to work on projects with your peers.
Variety
We have built this course around the steps involved in facilitating a meeting: Before , During and After so you will have a broad perspective of your role as facilitator and your responsibilities for ensuring the meeting meets the outcomes and purposes as defined.
Knowledge
A lot of attention is given to the exchange of experiences and, above all, to the skills required to become a masterful facilitator in the Agile world. Between training days you will receive peer assignments and study material which will be discussed in the class.
Passionate about Agile, we work together as a team to deliver meaningful change for our clients. We make it our mission to inspire change with our enthusiasm and knowledge of Organizational Agility.
About The Online Agile Coach Certification
What makes this Agile Course different
Even online, our courses are highly immersive, which means that you will not see many PowerPoint presentations. You are put to work immediately and start learning by doing and experimenting with the tools explained and modeled by your peers and your ICAgile Accredited trainer.
Use professional coaching tools
Such as powerful questions, active listening, creating coaching alliances and contract, and how to give and receive feedback in an intelligent and constructive way.
Help create an environment
...in which individual team members feel safe to participate fully in creating a shared team vision and an agile culture that unites in their journey to Agile Excellence,
Conduct the coaching conversation
Including techniques to improve the way you listen, facilitate meetings and help your client become more effective.
Design and explain the coaching contract with your team and stakeholders
Coaching and mentoring teams and stakeholders
through different types of change.
Acquire effective skills
to foster collaboration and trust within the team
The only difference is the way the content is delivered, meaning that you can follow the online program from your home or office, instead of being present in a class room. We decided to stretch the program over 4 days, which actually gives you more time to practice in between sessions.
Yes. The ICP-ATF certificate issued after the program is exactly the same as the one you would receive after an in-class course. The Certificate doesn’t mention if you followed an online or in-class course.
There are no conditional pre-requisites for this Agile Team Facilitator Certification program. It is however advised to have good working knowledge of at least one Agile framework, and if you have working experience in an agile environment, that would be a plus. But, many people start their journey as a professional coach, or even as a manager. This course will help you take up your new role as an Agile Team Coach
No. The ICP-ATF Agile Certification course is a knowledge based certification program. This means that the course is designed to cover all the learning objectives required by ICAgile. We ask you to keep your camera on and have a good working microphone so you can actively participate in the many coaching and mentoring activities, breakout sessions, teach-back moments and presentations.
Never. The Agile Team Facilitation Certificate issued by ICAgile after this certification program has lifetime validity.
Usually within a few days after completion of the course, ICAgile will send you your certificate.
Two weeks before the start of the course you will receive your workbook. We ask you to print the pages and use them during the session. At the end of the program you can bind them together with the slides you found interesting and other notes you took during the session, to keep as a reference.
We will send you an invitation to join our Zoom conference room by email. The link will open a window. If you have never used Zoom before, we recommend you open this window a couple of minutes before the session starts so you can download the application if your browser requires this. You can then keep the window open untill your trainer opens the classroom and the session begins.
We offer an extensive follow-up program to all our students including two sessions with a professional coach. You can claim your two coaching sessions after your course. These sessions are there to help you get on your feet as an Agile Coach, but if you wish, you may address a completely different challenge with your coach. It is up to you how you use these valuable moments with your coach.
“Nothing beats a face-to-face conversation to understand your company’s history and discover its needs.”
A totally free and non-binding meeting.
We explain everything about Organizational Agility and how we can help you reap its benefits for your team.
