12 modules, each with 12 chapters (144 chapters total), text-based, plus downloadable templates and a hand-built implementation playbook delivered alongside course access.
Your PI planning event collapses every cycle because team-level objectives don’t roll up cleanly and leadership can’t track cross-team dependencies

The situation this course is for

You're accountable for delivery across agile teams, but every PI planning cycle descends into confusion: feature estimates vanish, dependencies aren't mapped early, and teams commit to outcomes they can't deliver. You spend weeks cleaning up misalignment instead of enabling execution. The PMP and SAFe 6.0 RTE credentials mean you’re expected to fix it, yet the templates and frameworks you’ve tried don’t handle real-world complexity. This course gives you a working system that survives contact with reality.

Who this is for

Program Manager in regulated, multi-team environments who holds PMP and SAFe 6.0 RTE credentials and is measured on PI predictability and cross-team delivery

Who this is not for

Team leads focused only on sprint execution, agile coaches without delivery accountability, or practitioners in non-regulated startups

What you walk away with

  • Run a PI planning event that survives first contact with cross-team dependencies
  • Map feature-level commitments to program goals with traceable confidence
  • Stop reworking the same integration risks every cycle
  • Deliver a clear, visual dependency tracker that leadership trusts
  • Reduce post-PI planning cleanup from 3 weeks to under 3 days
