What makes companies like Microsoft, AT&T, Philips, and Cisco tick? The answer lies in a little something called Agile Project Management, a collaborative and ultra-productive methodology that uses rapid iterations called “sprints” to continuously improve a product while eliminating errors.

Agile originated some 50 years ago in a paper written by computer scientist William Royce and was later refined in a so-called “Agile Manifesto” published by 17 software developers in 2001. While still quite prevalent within the software world, Agile has expanded into a variety of other industries as more companies have gone digital. And as demand for Agile experts has risen, so have their salaries. Getting certified in the methodology is capable of raising a project manager’s earning potential into six figures territory.

If your eyes widened when you read that last sentence, we’ve got a hot tip just for you: Prepare yourself for Agile certification by enrolling in Certs School’s Agile Expert Project Management Bundle. Designed to be learned at your own pace, this collection of three courses starts with a basic run-down of Agile methodologies and an introduction to the Scrum, Agile’s team-based framework for tackling a product or project’s development. 

Once you master the basics, you’ll begin your PMI-ACP (Agile Certified Practitioner) training with deep dives into Kanban, Lean, and other Agile methodologies. Topping off this bundle is Agile ScrumMaster certification training that aims to prep you for the ASM (Agile Scrum Master) certification exam.

For just a few days, you’ll find a year’s worth of access to the Agile Expert Project Management Bundle on sale in the Mashable Shop for only $39 — a whopping 94% off its original price of $750.
