Agile Project Planning and Estimation
Estimating and planning are not just about determining an appropriate deadline or schedule. Planning-especially an ongoing iterative approach to planning-is a quest for value. Planning is an attempt to find an optimal solution to the overall product development question: What should we build? To answer this question, the team considers features, resources, and schedule. The question cannot be answered all at once. It must be answered iteratively and incrementally. PM Expert's course on planning and estimation will help you master the techniques and best practices for continuous planning and estimation and how panning can help you in maximizing the value
