SAFe Agile Software Engineering with ASE Certification

This Scaled Agile Framework® (SAFe®) course provides you the principles and practices that make up the Agile Software Engineering discipline. Attending the class prepares you to take the exam and become a certified SAFe Agile Software Engineer (ASE).

A Certified SAFe 5 Agile Software Engineer (ASE) applies Test-First principles to create alignment between tests and requirements, communicates with Agile modeling, creates shared understanding with Behavior-Driven Development (BDD), builds applications with code and design quality, and applies Lean-Agile principles to optimize the flow of value.

Enabling Technical Agility for the Lean Enterprise according to SAFe, version 5.1

The discipline of software engineering has evolved over the past decades with the introduction of Lean-Agile and DevOps principles and practices. New skills and approaches help organizations deliver software-centric solutions faster, more predictably, and with higher quality. During this three-day, workshop-oriented course, attendees learn the fundamental principles and practices that make up the Agile Software Engineering discipline.

Attendees may be eligible to apply for 8 PDUs toward their continuing education requirements with the Project Management Institute (PMI) for PMP.

Target Group

This SAFe Agile course targets the technical members of an Agile Team – developers and testers.

Product Owners, Scrum Master, Managers, and others with a less technical background would also benefit as they would gain an understanding of the development process so that team collaboration will become more effective.

Goal

  • Attendees will learn how continuous flow of value delivery and building quality in are enabled by modern practices including XP technical practices, Behavioral-Driven Development (BDD), and Test-Driven Development (TDD).
  • Attendees will learn proven practices to detail, model, design, implement, verify, and validate stories in a SAFe Continuous Delivery Pipeline.
  • Attendees will know the practices that build quality into code (abstraction, encapsulation, intentional programming) and designs (SOLID, Design patterns).
  • Attendees will also understand how Software Engineering fits into the larger solution context and their role in collaborating on intentional architecture and DevOps.

Prerequisites

Everybody is welcome to attend the course, regardless of experience. However, meeting the following prerequisites will make the training more productive:

  • Understanding of SAFe for Teams
  • Background in engineering, development, managing development, or quality assurance.
