Agile Design, Architecture and Technical Leadership
Most descriptions of Agile development gloss over the role of the architect/designer, but architects/designers are important to Agile projects and have critical contributions to make. Furthermore, design is done not just by the architects/designers. The level of design and architecture and the style and interaction of an architect/designer within an Agile team is quite different to that within a traditional team.
This course examines the values, principles and philosophy behind Agile architecture and design and looks at the technical leadership role that needs to be played through all phases of an Agile project. It covers the Agile approach to enterprise architecture, domain architecture and application architecture within an Agile project. This course also addresses the Agile design principles and the role of the architect (enterprise, solution, and application).
This course is part of the Agile Academycurriculum. Software Education is proud to be a founding partner of the Agile Academy.
