A facilitator is the one who plans, prepares, and designs a facilitated session, applies the appropriate methods and processes and develops the session materials. He is the one who encourages full participation, promotes mutual trust, embraces a growth mindset, and fosters the win-win Solution in the organization. He also optimizes and maintains neutrality throughout the engagement with the client and helps the team to achieve the desired goal.

A good facilitator is a team-level coach who keeps the team running and growing by facilitating Agile practices, helps the team deliver its business value, helps the team in Being Agile, supports a self-organized team, enables the team’s Journey towards a high-performance team and fosters growth mindset in the organization.

ICP-ATF is an ideal certification for people working in a Scrum master role. Being a professional, you master the art of facilitation and learn the tools and techniques to create fruitful meetings.

The certification body does not have an official ICAgile ATF exam. Once you join our virtual ATF program, you will attend all the online sessions mentioned in the schedule above. After every session, you will get an assignment that must be submitted before the next class. On Completing all classes and assignments successfully, you will be awarded ICP-ATF certification.

If you aspire to become an agile coach, both workshops are equally important, but for the matter of order, you should do ICP-ATF first and then go for ICP-ACC.

If you have done ACC certification or already working as an agile coach, you understand the difference facilitation skills can bring to you and your team. By going through ATF, you will be able to master the critical facilitation skills necessary to excel as an agile coach. The final decision should come from you. If you feel that you are already skilled as a facilitator, you may decide to skip going through this workshop. But as said earlier, mastering facilitation skills is critical for an Agile coach.

The cost of certification is included in the ATF training fee. You need not pay for anything separately.

The ICP ATF Certification comes with lifetime validity. You need not renew it.

Participants are expected to have a good working knowledge of Agile and Scrum. If you are new to Agile or Scrum, we recommend you read through the basics. A working experience as Scrum Master, Agile Coach, Product Owner or Agile Project Manager would be a definite plus.

Scrum master is a training based on the Scrum framework. It does not cover facilitation, a must-have skill for anyone leading a collaborative team.

If you worked as a Scrum Master for two years, perhaps you already understand the criticality of facilitation skills in the success of your Scrum team. This course makes you handle collaborative and self-organizing teams more effectively.

If you are a project manager working on a traditional project, it’s the right time to learn collaboration and facilitation skills. The world is moving agile, and you cannot be left behind.
