Get ready to Agile! Gain valuable knowledge about our agile methodology in our Virtual Experience Program.
Business and technology have never changed faster. The opportunity has never been greater to create new customer experiences and launch new digital-based business models. That may require compressing years of change into months.
At Cognizant, we help modern businesses achieve agility for an increasingly digital world. We build and test new products, finding out what works and plan for growth. We test ideas, incorporate feedback and determine how best to scale products quickly and successfully.
Our Agile method is an iterative approach to project management and software development that helps teams deliver value to their customers faster and with fewer headaches. Instead of betting everything on a “big bang” launch, an agile team delivers work in small, but consumable, increments.
Agile encourages experimentation, adaptation, and flexibility. If you like to work in an environment where you are encouraged to stretch the limits and look for better ways of doing something, then look no further.
This program is self-paced. It takes approximately 5-6 hours to complete.
