“One of the best training courses I have attended”

Anushi Agarwal, Dunn Humby

“I just want to thank you for inviting me to the Certified Agile Testing briefing last week.  I’m actually surprised at how much I learnt from your excellent presenters in that short one to two hours!”

Tina A, Business Analyst, Beazley Group

Agile has become increasingly popular over a number of years and is now recognised as a mainstream discipline that has become the model of choice for many business critical projects. Market research, widespread acceptance of agile and its reliance on integrated teams has driven the need for professional certification, hence the birth of the ‘Certified Agile Tester (CAT)’ scheme from the International Software Quality Institute (iSQI – www.isqi.org), the professional certification body.  

The research and need for discipline and teamwork was considered during the long and careful process of developing a certification syllabus that is agile and not static. To provide worldwide consistency of learning, CAT is based on a single set of material and group of exams, so someone taking CAT in the UK will benefit from the same learning and experience as someone from another country. More information about CAT can be found at www.agile-tester.org.
 
Agile team members can shy away from standardized training and exams as they can be seen to be opposing the agile philosophy. However, agile projects are no free agents; they need structure and discipline, as well as a common language and methods to be successful. CAT has been  built to develop the skills, consensus and method of daily working that help bring about project success
