Communities
Agile delivery community
The agile community exists to:
- share information about how to use agile ways of working in government
- give agile practitioners the opportunity to share experiences, observed behaviours and best practice
- give people a space to discuss and challenge the way agile methods are used to deliver government projects and products
Who the community is for
