Description
The Leading SAFE certification is recognized as the gold standard for Lean-Agile enterprises. It expands your professional horizons, offering enhanced value and diverse career opportunities. The Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) stands out as the most widely implemented enterprise Agile methodology. According to a Forrester Survey on Global Agile Software Application Development, 33% of organizations leverage SAFE as their Agile framework of choice.
Although Agile methodologies work exceptionally well for small teams, most modern organizations operate through interconnected teams, complex systems, and distributed geographies. Scaling Agile to the enterprise level is critical for achieving faster delivery, superior product quality, and swift customer responsiveness. However, large-scale Agile transformations often encounter setbacks due to insufficient structure and processes, limiting the impact of their implementation.
SAFE provides a comprehensive roadmap for Agile transformation at scale, enabling large project teams to adopt Lean-Agile principles seamlessly across all organizational levels. The framework harmonizes alignment, collaboration, and delivery across multiple teams, creating a path toward enterprise-wide success. With its latest version (5.1), SAFE introduces advanced features focused on strategy, execution, and leadership to drive full business agility and foster innovation that outpaces the competition.
With over 70% of Fortune 100 companies in the US utilizing SAFE, the demand for
Leading SAFE certifications continues to grow. Attaining the SAFE 5 Agilist certification, accredited by Scaled Agile, positions you as a leader in Agile transformations, offering a significant edge over your peers in the evolving job market.
