The International Consortium for Agile Certifies ASPE Courseware to Provide Clients an Industry-Leading Level of Training and Agile Certification

Bountiful, UT (PRWEB) February 12, 2013

International Consortium of Agile (ICAgile), the industry-leading Agile training accreditation consortium, announced today that ASPE, Inc. has posted its schedule of classes that offer students the opportunity to become a Certified ICAgile Professional. ASPE is on track to offer well over 100 Certified ICAgile Professional, (CIP) classes in 2013. This is only the beginning of ASPE's ICAgile course offerings, as the company is working toward offering classes in every track of the ICAgile Learning Roadmap.

"Working with ASPE to offer ICAgile classes has been tremendously validating," said Jennifer Stone, Managing Director of ICAgile. "ASPE is a highly respected training provider in the software development community. When a company of ASPE's stature values our accreditation process, we know our model is satisfying a real need for the Agile community."

"I have been thoroughly impressed with the amount of forethought they have put into this program as well as the rigor they apply when certifying courses," says ASPE blogger, Natalie Morgan. “It has been a challenging process but one that bore a tremendous amount of value, as it provided me a great deal of time to evaluate our courseware and how it served those individuals that were looking for an Agile education.”

“This is a wonderful step forward for the agile field, that a company with the breadth and experience in teaching as ASPE has, recognizes the value in having its Agile courses examined and accredited by ICAgile," says Dr. Alistair Cockburn, co-author of the Agile Manifesto and special advisor to ICAgile.

The International Consortium for Agile is the only course accreditation body with a methodology-neutral set of learning objectives created and carefully vetted by agile experts. ASPE's core mission is the development of hands-on, real-world courses designed to fill pressing skills gaps to make employees more effective and empowering companies to gain critical competitive advantage.
